Remaining Key Full Text PublicationsUnique to
ABI/INFORM Complete
NO EMBARGO Dow Jones (4) EIU Viewswire (1)
MIT Sloan Management Review (1) Dow Jones
provides four newspapers that are all available
via Factiva as well. EBSCO had the opportunity
to license EIU Viewswire, but the advisory boards
voted that other content was more valuable, and
Business Source Complete already contains EIU
Country Reports and Country Profiles. In
addition, for 187 per year, a university may
have a print subscription and institution-wide
access to the e-journal for MIT Sloan Management
Review with links from EBSCOs Business Source.
EMBARGOED Emerald (104) Oxford University
Press (23) Palgrave (10) Sage (26) All of
the above embargoed publishers offer direct
e-journal subscriptions without embargoes, and
EBSCOs Business Source links to all of these
publisher sites.
