Abstract
Trade journals and trade news sources are an invaluable source for business students, entrepreneurs, and job seekers, but there have not been any recent analyses to determine whether these sources are adequately represented in the aggregator databases used by Business Librarians. In this study, the researcher compiled a list of 768 quality trade news sources using the First Research industry reports from ABI/INFORM Collection and compared the full text coverage and the currency of coverage of these sources in Business Source Complete, ABI/INFORM Collection, Business Insights: Global, Nexis Uni, and Factiva using UlrichsWeb. This study identified whether there was full text coverage of these sources in additional aggregator products from EBSCO, ProQuest, Gale, and LexisNexis. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant lack of full text coverage and current full text coverage in the business aggregator packages and other aggregator packages available from library database vendors. Lastly, this study offers a few suggestions for how librarians can collaborate to increase the discoverability of trade sources that are not available in these aggregator packages.
