This guide can direct you to suggested resources--library databases, reputable websites and organizations, books, and more--for your CM 442 Global Brand Management assignments;
For Library databases that have many different sections or components, we will suggest specific search terms and/or pathways to get the information you need for specific parts of your assignments.
We may also recommend outside websites that we've found to be trustworthy, though you should always look at each site and evaluate for yourself, as things change.
Sometimes, we'll give examples of a web search using wording that we have found to be relevant and successful in the past. We won't necessarily update these results.
Look for occasional tips or notes like "Why we like these resources" and "How to find similar information"
If you want more suggestions or need help with a specific piece of info, use our Ask The Library service which includes the option to schedule a one-on-one appointment with a librarian
