Database Alert: Trial Business-Related Databases

The University Library has set trials to 3 business related databases for UIUC researchers (UIUC Net ID and PW required if using off-campus):

Business Source Complete
Same as Business Source Premier, except it contains business scholar and notable businessmen's profiles, working papers, some full-text of books, and more full-text of scholarly works; in addition, searchable cited references provided for more than 1,200 journals.

SocIndex with Full Text
SocINDEX with Full Text is the world's most comprehensive and highest quality sociology research database. The index features more than 1,300,000 records with subject headings from a 15,600 term sociology-specific thesaurus designed by expert lexicographers. SocINDEX with Full Text contains full text for 242 "core" coverage journals dating back to 1895, and 72 "priority" coverage journals. This database also includes full text for 547 books and monographs, and full text for 6,711 conference papers (including the ASA Conference Proceedings)

Making of a Modern Economy
The Making of the Modern Economy: Goldsmiths'-Kress Library of Economic Literature 1450-1850 provides digital facsimile images on every page of 61,000 works of literature on economic and business published from 1450 through 1850. Full-text searching on more than 12 million pages provides researchers unparalleled access to this vast collection of material on commerce, finance, social conditions, politics, trade and transport.

As always, happy searching!
