Greetings!
I recently learned that a very important resource," World Development Indicators", which we have in paper and CD-ROM:
http://www.d.umn.edu/~jvileta/keybusiness/worlddevelop.htm
is now available ONLINE for FREE:
http://data.worldbank.org/data-catalog/world-development-indicators
Now anyone needing this information can access this data at home, day or night.
This data is particularly useful for people in Economics or anyone doing country analysis for international business. The data goes back to 1960 (when available), can be exported to Excel, and graphs can viewed as well.
Soon this link will appear on our UMD Library's List of Databases, and by tomorrow or so, it will be listed on my Launch Pad.
This is a great resource! If you have questions or comments, please call or email.
Thanks!!!
