Global Info Portal from MSU

Michigan State University has a website/database at http://www.msuglobalaccess.net/ that's worth a quick look.

This database is unique because it's searchable in all kinds of configurations. Categories include:

  • World region or country
  • Thematic area ( e.g., environment, gender, international development, travel and geography)
  • Constituency group (e.g., Business and Labor,  K-12 teachers)
  • Resource type (e.g., maps, news sources)

There's also an option to start with Country Pages.  These include:

  • basic facts
  • news headlines
  • news sources
  • maps
  • travel info
  • background info
  • a search tool for other websites

Just like the GlobalEdge portal, its mostly open access. If you find a resource that is restricted to MSU students, check our business library website (or email us) to see if we have access through Washington University.
