This database has a number of limitations established by the publisher. First, please note that Harvard Business Review does not make its case studies available to libraries. Check with your instructor or the university bookstore regarding access to case studies.
Harvard Business Review has disabled print functionality for some of their articles as a Digital Rights Management (DRM) measure.
They have also modified their PDFs so that they cannot be printed, or copy and pasted. You also cannot highlight or add notes to these PDF files, or create permalinks to these articles.
Further, they have disabled Optical Character Recognition (OCR), making articles unreadable by a screen reader. If you use a screen reader because you are blind or visually impaired, and you need to read one of these articles, please contact the college's Office of Accessibility Resources and Services so that they can have a screen reader-enabled or audio version made available to you.
*Please note that Harvard Business Review Case Studies are NOT available through the SUNY Empire online library. You must purchase these.
