Full Description
The Commerce Research Library manages the contracts for several online databases and resources that support the work of Commerce employees. These electronic resources allow the Department to save money by providing access to DC HQ and other select regional offices under a single subscription, reducing the need for physical storage space for the print equivalent, and allow users to access information at their desktops.
DOC has maintained a subscription to Wall Street Journal digital services for over ten years, during which time staff have relied on the comprehensive global coverage of business, financial, economic, and political events to support their work. Users require continued access to timely breaking news alerts in these focus areas and other technical tools and analysis that are unavailable through general interest news sources or third-party aggregators.
