New Product Announcement-->e-Library/Conference Board of Canada

e-Library / Conference Board of Canada

We don't get all the titles that show up when you search e-library. No doubt this will cause the users some confusion. Sigh....

UPDATE: YAY, good news, Linda checked and we do have access to the Industrial Outlooks!!

While it cause me some amount of pain to pay the amount we do for this product. I have to say I know there will be general rejoicing at its arrival. The Conference Board publishes on Economic Trends, Organizational Performance, and Public Policy, all with a Canadian focus.

You can find out more about the CBofC at http://www.conferenceboard.ca.ezproxy.lib.ucalgary.ca/who.htm

The subscription includes

Research reports, Special reports and Viewpoints.

We also team with other organizations to produce special reports on a variety of subjects. Viewpoints are reports that allow our research staff to offer opposing views on a specific topic. Formats include Member’s Briefing, Full Report and Detailed Findings.
