The Association of College and Research Libraries broadly defines information literacy as “the set of integrated abilities encompassing the reflective discovery of information, the understanding of how information is produced and valued, and the use of information in creating new knowledge and participating ethically in communities of learning.”

The assignments for the following courses require students to investigate different aspects of the external environment:

• FIN 4760, Managerial Economics
• MKTG 4100, Marketing Concepts
• MGMT 4690, Strategic Management

Each of these courses are listed in this research guide. Under each section tutorials are provided for specific subject databases that can can be used in course assignments. Although the navigation of this guide is different from how they appear in the these tutorials, the way to search the databases that are the focus of them have not.

If you have any questions, please contact Esther Gil, the business librarian.
