For several years now, the University Library has been providing access to the full-text economics database “Business Source Premier” for all researchers and students at the TUHH. Now, the provider has announced a significant price increase for the coming year, combined with an upgrade of the package to “Business Source Complete.” The upgrade includes approximately 700 additional full-text journals and magazines. The downside: From 2026 onwards, it will no longer be possible to continue subscribing under the current conditions.
From October to December, the expanded “Business Source Complete” package will be available to all TU members as a trial access.
Check it out!
The trial access is now available. You can access Business Source Complete as usual via this link.
Alternativ steht Ihnen während der Testphase aber auch das Business Searching Interface (BSI) zur Verfügung. Hierbei handelt es sich um eine Suchumgebung, die für wirtschaftsbezogene Recherchen optimiert ist und u. U. ein besseres Nutzungserlebnis bietet.
Alternatively, you may use the Business Searching Interface (BSI) which is also available to you during the test phase. This is a search environment optimized for business-related research which may offer a better user experience depending on your preferences.
Feedback to the university library
We hope for active participation in the test phase in order to gain an overview of the benefits that this more extensive package for research and teaching at the TUHH may offer.
Do you still consider subscribing to “Business Source” important despite the new licensing conditions? Please send us your feedback to tub-erwerbungsleitung@tuhh.de.
Of course, we’re available at any time to answer further questions and provide advice!
