CHICAGO—Published by ALA Editions, “ALA Guide to Economics & Business Reference” focuses on key print and electronic sources. Readers will find information on:

  • Business law;
  • Electronic commerce;
  • International business;
  • Management of information systems;
  • Market research, occupations and careers and much more.

As the publisher of the essential “Guide to Reference Books,” first printed more than a century ago (and often referred to by the names of its editors, including Balay, Sheehy, and Winchell), as well as “Reference Sources for Small and Medium-Sized Libraries” and “Fundamental Reference Sources,” the ALA has long been a source for authoritative bibliographies of the reference literature for practicing librarians, library educators and reference service trainers. The ALA Guide to Reference series continues that tradition with expertly compiled, discipline-specific, annotated bibliographies of reference works. Under the direction of general editors Robert Kieft (2000–2009) and Denise Bennett (2009–), many librarians have contributed their time and their knowledge of reference literature to this series.
