Note: You will find Harvard cases in Business Source Complete, but to comply with the policy set by Harvard Business Publishing, you should not distribute these cases (in print or electronically) for course readings. Harvard cases are not sold to libraries, and must be purchased directly by the end user from Harvard Business Publishing for Educators.

Harvard Business Publishing has strict licensing terms regarding access and use of its case studies and articles. Harvard does not sell its cases to libraries. In addition, the cases cannot be placed on reserve at the library or distributed via interlibrary loan. To learn more about obtaining materials from Harvard Business Publishing, go to the site for Harvard Business Publishing for Educators (linked below).
