The library provides access to thousands of online full text and print articles, and when we don’t have access, we will do our best to borrow the article you need from another library using Iliad, our Inter-Library Loan Service. Unfortunately, Harvard Business School Cases are not available through Manhattanville University's library (or any library for that matter), as Harvard Business School does not sell the cases to libraries. Instead, Harvard sells the cases direct to the consumer from the Harvard Business for Educators website. If you need to use a Harvard Business School Case for your own research or class, you will need to purchase the case directly from Harvard Business for Educators.
Manhattanville University has access to the full run of Harvard Business Review (1922-present) via the library's subscription to Business Source Premier.
However: Professors and instructors wishing to use Harvard Business Review Articles in their classes should work with Harvard Business Publishing for Educators. At the HBR site, professors can set up course reading lists where the students can purchase the articles needed for class assignments. Professors should not link to HBR articles in Business Source Premier in Blackboard, nor should they tell students that HBR articles in required readings can be found at the library. Since 2009, the statement below is found on every single HBR article in Business Source Premier. It strictly states that if the HBR content is to be used for course materials, then professors and students should purchase the content directly from Harvard Business Publishing.
"Harvard Business Review and Harvard Business Publishing Newsletter content on EBSCOhost is licensed for the private individual use of authorized EBSCOhost users. It is not intended for use as assigned course material in academic institutions nor as corporate learning or training materials in businesses. Academic licensees may not use this content in electronic reserves, electronic course packs, persistent linking from syllabi or by any other means of incorporating the content into course resources. Business licensees may not host this content on learning management systems or use persistent linking or other means to incorporate the content into learning management systems. Harvard Business Publishing will be pleased to grant permission to make this content available through such means. For rates and permission, contact permissions@harvardbusiness.org."
In August 2013, Harvard Publishing restricted 500 articles in Business Source Premier as “read only.” Unlike the other articles in the database, these 500 articles can only be viewed on a computer screen and not downloaded or printed. The full statement from EBSCO regarding this initiative is found below:
"As of August 2013, some changes will be made to Harvard Business Review (HBR) article access for Business Source customers. This change will not affect institutions that have already purchased the expanded rights from Harvard Business Publishing. Further, customers buying a site license will not be impacted.
As you are likely aware, full-text licensing agreements with publishers are subject to change in all databases, and EBSCO is committed to providing our customers with as much advance notice as possible on full-text content changes as often as we possibly can. With that said, we would like to inform you that as of August 1, 2013, all databases containing HBR will experience a change for 500 of the articles. These articles will become read-only, and will be clearly marked as such.”
