Re-introducing ABI/INFORM GLOBAL—A comprehensive business database offering the latest business and financial information for researchers at all levels. If you’re a student at the Merrick School of Business (as shown above), you may have already used this straightforward database on the reliable ProQuest Platform. If you haven’t, it’s worth exploring. 

 

ABI/INFORM GLOBAL contains the full text of thousands of journals, including essential scholarly journals and the most important trade journals. Researchers increasingly require a wider range of sources beyond scholarly journals, and ABI/INFORM GLOBAL delivers this through extensive access to dissertations, working papers, reports, news sources, and more.

 

The University of Baltimore Library & Archives is a longtime subscriber to the easy-to-use ABI/INFORM GLOBAL. It’s a great place to search full-text periodicals like the Economist, Barron’s, and the Wall Street Journal to start your research and narrow your topic.
