Foreign firms here and American firms there

The library has added two directories, American Firms Operating in Foreign Countries and Foreign Firms Operating in the United States, to the online collections. Both directories can be searched by country, state, keyword, industry code, revenue and number of employees, and more. You can display, print or download search results. For questions or guidance with using these resources, contact Mike Davis, Business Reference Services Librarian.
