Library Resources for School of Business (SOB) Faculty

This digital space consist of library materials to aid faculty in their SOB courses.

Harvard Business Publishing Education

Harvard Business Publishing has a complete catalog of business case studies, articles, books, and simulations.

The first step is to register for an Educator Premium Account. In the registration, we ask for a URL (web address) of a faculty listing where we can verify teaching status in addition to your e-mail address found at that URL (to confirm it is NOT a student registering as a Professor). This review process takes about 2 business days. Once registration has been approved, you will have free access to educator copies in addition to teaching notes. You may also add an assistant that enables the assistant to act on your behalf in helping create courses. You will have the ability to create coursepacks that can be distributed to your students. We grant educator copies to HBR articles, case studies, book chapters, etc. to assist in finding the materials you would like to use in the course.

Wall Street Journal- Context

 Wall Street Journal (WSJ) Context is a tool for professors to easily incorporate The Wall Street Journal into their classes. It allows professors to search for articles based on topics, add to reading lists and share with students. The Context platform can be accessed by any students or faculty who have an active WSJ Education membership.
