1. If you are in Pittsburgh, you can come to the CMU libraries any time they are open and use the databases through our computers. You just need to ask for a password at the circulation desk. Besides that, it's a great place to live!
2. Many of the links and databases on our business and economics research guides lead to free sources, though they may not indicate that. So give them a try!
3. Send your business librarian an email, and if our licenses permit or if I know of a free source, I'll send you whatever I can.
