Databases provide access to collections of information such as books, journal articles, encyclopaedias, conference papers, company information, cases, and legislation. Some databases provide information in full [text] whilst others will only give the reference and an abstract.
When you use the 'Search the online Library' box, the main search box on the library website, or the Advanced Search, you are searching across a selection of databases simultaneously. If you find the number of documents retrieved is overwhelming, or not relevant, try searching individual databases.
Specific information, such as company reports, statistics, or the law are not included in the main search. For this information you will need to go direct to the database. Below is a list of databases for both business and management, and law.
Access to company, industry, financial, product, country information, research and data extending across every major marketplace and industry; additional content now also includes Influencers Database, Industry Profiles Archive, Case Study Archive, Theme reports and Country Risk Reports.

2 million 19th-century newspaper pages selected by experts in the field of national and regional newspapers.
Sourced from the extensive holdings of the British Library, British Library Newspapers delivers a wide range of irreplaceable local and regional voices to reflect the social, political, and cultural events of the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries. These newspapers, emerging during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries as a crucial channel of information in towns and major cities, provide researchers with a unique, first-hand perspective on history. With more than 240 newspaper titles, the series is comprised of approximately 6.4 million pages of historic content, from articles to advertisements. This collection illuminates diverse and distinct regional attitudes, cultures, and vernaculars, providing an alternative viewpoint to the London-centric national press over a period of more than 200 years.
Content Advisory
This archive provides access to primary sources created by groups and individuals that were products of their time. Therefore, users may come across content that is upsetting such as outmoded language, cartoons and caricatures, and other imagery that may be offensive because of its representation of race, gender, sexuality, beliefs, or other characteristics. These views are not shared by the British Library, Gale or Cengage.
The nature and value of the Gale Primary Sources archives is that they present artifacts as they existed, without manipulation by Gale. We develop content with the guidance of scholars, subject matter specialists, and the academic community. Studying the historical context of a topic, including the potential prejudices or biases imposed by society or authors, allows students and researchers to engage in critical conversations, make important comparisons and connections, and enable greater understanding to inspire change and cross-cultural awareness.

Access to the Daily Mail archive for all articles published between 1896 and 2004. The archive also includes access to the Atlantic editions, published between 1923 and 1931.
Described by the New Yorker as "the newspaper that rules Britain", the Daily Mail has been at the heart of British journalism since 1896, regularly changing the course of government policy and setting the national debate. Its website is among the most visited news sites in the world. The Daily Mail Historical Archive includes more than one hundred years of this major UK national newspaper, viewable in full digital facsimile form, with copious advertisements, news stories, and images that capture twentieth-century culture and society.
As well as the regular edition of the newspaper, the Daily Mail Historical Archive also includes the Daily Mail Atlantic Edition, which was published on board the cruise ships that sailed between New York and Southampton from 1923 to 1931. Copies were printed and sold to passengers on every day of the five- day voyages, with news transmitted from London and New York to the middle of the Atlantic by wireless radio transmission. These editions published different content to the regular London version of the paper and contained articles specifically commissioned for the journey, with a heavy emphasis on American content.
