Resources for your Literature Review
The library website connects you to the scholarly research on your topic. The QuickSearch box on the library homepage searches almost everything the library has all at once. It gives you access to a lot of content that isn't available on Google. This Research guide is meant to help you get started by providing a more focused set of resources to search within the database Business Source Complete.
