ABIINFORM数据库资源讲座-2009.pptVIP

* * * ABI has a growing collection of business cases from leading collections (HBR, Ivey, Darden, etc). These enhance the connection between library research collections and the classroom as users can identify cases relevant to their field of study. * Since July 2008, we’ve added a new article type, Market Research, which enables users to access data-rich information about diverse industries and markets in publications like Advertising Age, Brandweek, Journal of Advertising or the Journal of Consumer Behaviour. We also have 22,000 market research reports, now indexed. This is top content when doing business research and removes the added expense of having to purchase reports on a case-by-case basis. * We have more than 7,000 Annual Reports from leading North American companies in ABIC only. * We now have over 125,000 author, research and institution profiles linked from ABI/INFORM to Scholar Universe. It’s the web’s fastest growing collection of accurate and regularly updated profiles covering published authors, faculty members, professional researchers and their organisational affiliations. This discipline-specific information keeps researchers and students connected to scholars in their fields. We use a proprietary, controlled subject vocabulary that’s developed from the language employed in source publications. The ProQuest Controlled Vocabulary (Thesaurus) includes more than 16,000 entries: more than 11,200 subject terms plus 75,000 cross-references. With so many vocabulary entries, our level of indexing detail is quite high, allowing researchers to develop searches that will retrieve only the most relevant citations * First Research行业研究报告，通过拓展与Hoovers的合作，ABI/INFORM新增特有的研究报告内容- First Research In-Depth Industry Reports，涉及 300多个行业和商业信息，每个报告 （10-15页） 提供产品、运作、技术、竞争、指标、财经、规则和新闻方面的信息，该系列报告提供精简和格式化的行业综述信息，广受图书馆界好评。 Business Monitor International (BMI, London)，全球知名商业信息出版商，向130多国家和地区，400多家全球500强企业提供研究报告，ABI/INFORM Complete现已收录了BMI所提供的行业研究报告，涉及全球能源、电力、矿产、金融、医药、建筑、食品等各个
