History of Rosenberg Corporate Research Center (RCRC)
The J. Hugh Jackson Library is a working laboratory for the preparation of assigned work, for the collection of information in subject areas of interest to the Graduate School of Business, and for in-depth academic research. The classified collection now contains over 400,000 items, as well as hundreds of thousands of corporate reports on microfiche, a range of financial research databases and an outstanding academic periodicals collection with nearly 1600 subscriptions.
As the organizing principle of the main floor of the Jackson Library, the Rosenberg Corporate Research Center forms the heart of our resources. Established in 1992 by a generous gift from philanthropists Louise J. and Claude N. Rosenberg, Jr. (MBA '52), the Center is a permanent facility in Jackson Library. It was created with the convenience of the user in mind, gathering together in one physical location the latest business and information resources available in print and electronic formats, and providing user support through reference services.
Historically, a great deal of the impetus for the rapid growth of the Jackson database collection dates from the Rosenberg gift. This bequest laid a firm foundation for the subsequent acquisition of numerous important new electronic resources at the Library.
The focal point of the Rosenberg Center is a distributed network of computer workstations, each providing access to an array of state-of-the-art business and financial databases. Emphasis has been given to corporate financial data, industry/ market statistics and indexes to periodical articles. Full-text electronic article files in business literature round out the complement of research resources.
