The Dialog Free Files of the Month are Cengage Gale PROMT (File 16) and Cengage Gale Trade & Industry (File 148). During April you can get up to $100 of searching for free. Output and Alerts are at regular prices.
Each of these files is known for sophisticated and comprehensive indexing of literature, covering international industries, products and companies. Many records are in full-text, and come from trade journals, regional business publications, management and economic journals, newswires, industry newsletters, analyst’s reports, research studies and company annual reports, among other sources.
PROMT is considered the ‘granddaddy’ of online business literature databases, with comprehensive coverage of more than 60 manufacturing and services industries back to 1972.
In addition to its coverage of 65 major industries, Trade & Industry covers such subject areas as:
- Management theory and practice
- Company stock performance
- Professional business activities
- Industry Overviews
- Reviews
- Economic and demographic information
- Financial exchange information
- Biographies
- Company securities transactions
- Product evaluations
