World trade is now Global!

University Libraries recently upgraded our World Trade Atlas, to the newer Global Trade Atlas from Global Information Services.

Like its predecessor, GTA also provides researchers with detailed country trade (import and export) data using the the Harmonized Schedule Code.  User can search by focusing on specific countries or by individual commodities or commodity groups.

Unlike its predecessors, however, and to its credit, I might add, users can actually access this resource over the World Wide Web from home, work, and coffee shops around the globe…presuming they have an intenet connection of course.
