The Butler Libraries are pleased to announce an upgrade to
Business Source Complete.
As of December 2005,
there are more than 200 active full text magazines and journals available via Business
Source Complete that were NOT available in Business Source Premier.
Through Business
Source Complete Butler students and faculty will now have access to
approximately 1,200 electronic full-text titles.
Other enhancements include:
- Select AICPA (American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants) material
- Euromoney investor
material
- Investment reports
- Marketing reports
- Company & industry
information
- Business book review
library
- Country reports
- Select full-text books
and reference works
While this database is geared towards business, much of the
information also has applications across the social sciences.

Butler Libraries have recently subscribed to a new online database. This one is a collection of over 950 full-text, peer-reviewed journals!
The ScienceDirect College Edition Health and Life Sciences Journal Collection is the world’s largest electronic collection of full text and
bibliographic information about science, technology, and medicine.
Clicking the link in our list of Indexes and Databases will take you to a list of all the journals that are available in this collection. To browse them, just click the title you’re interested in. Otherwise, you can do a QuickSearch by typing your search term(s) in the box at the top. If you want to do a more “advanced” search, click the green Search button at the top of the screen.
How would you like to go into an EBSCO Database and not have to re-create your search?
EBSCO Databases allow you to save your search results once you’ve created a profile in their system. That is DIFFERENT from your Butler profile. It involves actually creating a new account with EBSCO. You will use that account to access your saved search results. Go into any EBSCO database and click on “Sign In to My EBSCOhost” to get started.
Once you’ve done that and created your own profile in EBSCOhost, you can save and reexamine your searches in “My Folder.”
If you have any questions or problems using “My EBSCOhost,” please contact a Reference Librarian.
Students graduating may want to peruse the Career Subject Resource Guide:
http://www.butler.edu/library/research/srg/career.html
It is a complete list of all our career resources. Better still, most titles can now be checked out by students.

The CHOICES III database is still available on a computer in the Reference Department. And now there is a manual at that workstation to give you some assistance in setting up your research question, selecting columns and rows, and interpreting the results. For those of you needing consumer data about product and brand usage, this tool is just the thing.
