It covers access details, truncation symbols, and how to perform basic and advanced searches. With over 4,000 journals, including renowned titles like the Academy of Management Journal and Foreign Affairs, ABI/INFORM offers extensive full-text content, abstracts, and citations. This guide will help you effectively navigate the database to enhance your research.
