KYVL’s licensed database contracts provide Kentucky citizens access to thousands of full text books, magazines, professional journals and other high value content including images, maps, and video. We want to remind you about some of the content that Kentuckians can access virtually.

Let’s begin by talking about one of our favorite business resources.

The Small Business Reference Center is an electronic database provided by EBSCO. This resource offers comprehensive coverage for business owners and those exploring the idea of starting a business.  The database can be explored by categories ranging from Business Area to Start Up Kits and Business Plans.

If you need to know how to start a business in any state, this collection offers state by state access with all you need to know available through a quick series of clicks.

You can browse the collection by Business Areas.  A few are listed here to give you an idea of what you can discover.

  • Business & the Internet
  • Domain Names
  • Internet Income: Using Amazon
  • Marketing – Affiliate Marketing Programs
  • Selling Your Self-Made Product Online
  • Employees
    • E-Policy, Workplace Technology and Best Practices

    • Performance Appraisals
    • Problem Employees
  • Going Green
    • Eco Labels
    • Environmentally-friendly Business Practices
    • Green Computing
    • Take Back Programs

As you can see from these few highlights, the resources are well defined, easy to find and easy to access.
