Title: Industry research using the economic census : how to find it, how to use it
Description: "Both novice and expert business researchers have been amazed to discover that answers to their questions could be found in the Economic Censuses provided by the U.S. government. Until now, there have been no comprehensive guides to this valuable resource. Industry Research Using the Economic Census explains Census concepts, methods, terminology, and data sources in an understandable manner, helping Census users to locate data they need. Designed as a working handbook, this guide does not duplicate the data from the Census, but introduces users to the data's features, uses, and formats. That guidebook also discusses the important changes introduced by the 1997 and 2002 Economic Censuses. Librarians, businesspeople, researchers, faculty, and students will find this guide essential to mining the riches found in the Economic Censuses."--BOOK JACKET.
