Case Studies - Harvard Business School Catalog
Note: The Rosenfeld Library does not collect copies of individual HBS Case Studies--even the Harvard Business School's own Baker Library does not, either. Libraries do not have the option of "subscribing" to a database of HBS case studies--no such "subscription database" containing the full texts of HBS case studies exists for libraries to license. Also, HBS case studies are not available to be borrowed from the Baker Library through Interlibrary Loan ( please refer to the bottom of this “Baker Library Policies” page). The target market for Harvard Business School case studies is faculty and their students' business school course packs— not libraries. Individual students may also order copies of cases--typically priced at around $8.95 each, or less--directly from Harvard Business Publishing. Identify cases using the catalog cited below:
Please also see the Harvard Business Publishing Copyright Permission Guidelines for Educators, which further clarify why libraries cannot function as distributors of such HBS content as the Case Studies.
Another option to consider: A "fictional case study" is published in each issue of the Harvard Business Review (HBR), which is available both in print in the Rosenfeld Library and the UCLA Law Library, and full text online via the UC-licensed database Business Source Complete . To browse/retrieve these articles: click on the preceding link > click on "Search within this publication" > on the Advanced Search screen, set Document Type on "Case Study," and click on Search. As an alternative, click on this link to retrieve all at once every "case study-type" article in the HBR up to and including the most current issue.
