New Database in Business Library
March 31, 2009The Business Library has just subscribed to “Business Book Summaries.” This database includes more than 750 book summaries with more than 60 new titles added annually. For each book, experts create 300-word, 650-word, and 4,500-word summaries that present the author’s ideas in a condensed form.
The summaries are organized into 18 categories: Business Strategy, Management, Human Resources, Leadership, Business Biographies, Global Business, Marketing, Productivity, Customer Satisfaction, Innovation, Major Works, Economics, Finance, Diversity, IT/Internet, Social Responsibility and Entrepreneurship
Business Book Summaries focus on the author’s learning objectives, and each summary includes the Key Concepts found in the book, as well as an overview of the book’s contents and tips for optimizing the use of the book as a professional development resource. The Business Library will link this resource to Madcat so that users will be able to request the book itself.
Access to this resource is a link on the Business Library’s web page under “Databases.”
