MGMT 301 - Principles of Management: Home

Here are the resources discussed in our library session that may provide the sources you need for your strategic planning project.  Check the following tabs for screen grabs that will walk you through some of the more complex sites.  Remember to compile a list of keywords and their synonyms, and try different combinations of them while searching, particularly variations on "Northern New York," "North Country New York," and "Upstate New York."

And of course, if you have any questions or need a hand with your research, stop by the library or make an appointment with a librarian, and we'll be more than happy to help.
