This newly revised and updated edition (formerly titled "How To Use the Business Library"), the first in 12 years, is a key to timely and relevant business information. Written by two marketing professors and two librarians, this work is divided into four main sections: Introduction to Business Research and the Library; Research Strategies and General Sources of Business Information; Sources of Business Information; and Using What You've Learned. Each of the 16 chapters features an introduction to the topic, an in-depth descriptive list of relevant sources, and research tasks the sources can be used to perform. Expanding coverage on new and emerging technologies in business sources, this edition also provides new methods of accessing this information. Additionally, subject, author/title, organization, and association indexes have been included as well as more international sources, databases, and government publications. The final chapter/section guides the reader through the preparation of a research-based business report. A necessary purchase for academic libraries and very useful in public libraries.

Our sources of information, and the practices we use to find it, are in a period of rapid flux. Libraries must respond by selecting, acquiring, and making accessible a host of new information resources, developing innovative services, and building different types of spaces to support changing user behaviors and patterns of learning. A Field Guide to the Information Commons describes an emerging library service model that embodies all three spheres of response: new information resources, collaborative service programs, and redesigned staff and user spaces. Technology has enabled new forms of information-seeking behavior and scholarship, causing a renovation of libraries that revisits the idea of the "commons"—a public place that is free to be used by everyone. A Field Guide to the Information Commons describes the emergence, growth, and adoption of the concept of the information commons in libraries. This book includes a variety of contributed articles, and descriptive, structured entries for various information commons in libraries across the country and around the world.
