Locate your information

This page presents a number of electronic resources that can be used to locate articles on business topics.  For a more comprehensive list or to locate a specialized resource, please go to the Baylor Libraries homepage, then to the "Databases" tab on the search widget. 

  • Databases by Keyword - This will allow you to search by the name of the database you wish to find.
  • Databases by Subject - This will allow you to select a subject or discipline and see the databases associated with that area.

How do you know if the Baylor Libraries hold a particular periodical?  Here are some ways that you can use to check on various periodicals to see what formats and volumes/years are available through the libraries.

  • Do a title search on OneSearch - This will let you know what titles the libraries has and in what format they are available.  Doing a title search for the Economist will provide records for the paper edition and for the electronic version which will provide access points through various databases in the Baylor Libraries.
  • Databases such as ABI/Inform Complete and Business Source Complete oftentimes provide access to periodicals online.  By doing a "Publication" search in one of these databases, you will gain a "table of contents" type access to periodicals.  Look for the "Publications" tab at the top of the search page in these two databases, then type in your periodical title to browse for it in the database.
  • You may also limit to your periodical title when searching a database.  This is commonly done by typing your periodical title into the search box and changing the next box to "SO - publication title" (for Business Source Complete) or "Publication title -- PUB" (for ABI/Inform Complete). If you search with a subject or topic in the other search boxes, your results will be limited to the periodical that you have used.
