This Libguide is designed specifically for you, the Gies College of Business student. It will help you quickly get started with your research. Google is great but not all information is free or openly available. Here, you can find introductions to various kinds of library databases with instructions on how to search, tips on search strategies, and recommended resources for conducting research. We also distinguish what you can find on the open Net.
Bookmark this page, and you will find it a good friend whenever you need help or inspiration. BIS is in partnership with the Grainger Engineering Library Information Center (GELIC). If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us at enginlib@library.illinois.edu. You can reserve at room at the IDEA Lab by clicking here.
The purpose of this guide is to introduce and lead you to the various resources, free on the Internet and subscription databases available through the University Library regarding doing business in various countries. It will also provide some tips for searching the various databases. This is not an exhaustive list as the University Library has hundreds of databases but this guide is designed to be more focused for your capstone project.
Note: you will need your net ID and password for accessing the resources and a DUO account when accessing them outside of the libraries.
