License Ends

December 31, 2021

Description

"Canadian Business & Current Affairs™ (CBCA) Complete is the nation's largest and most comprehensive bibliographic full-text reference and current events database. Available through the ProQuest® Web interface, CBCA Complete combines full text and indexed content from all four CBCA database subsets (Business, Current Events, Education, and Reference). Subject coverage is comprehensive and information is available from the broadest range of Canadian sources anywhere. With over 4.5 million records and more than 1,730 titles, CBCA Complete is ideal for anyone interested in current events, business, science, the arts, and academic information as produced in Canada."

"CBCA Complete combines high-quality indexing with direct access to full-text articles. This includes nearly 640 periodicals and daily news sources (over 480 of which are Canadian), plus indexing to an additional 1,100 other titles (over 95% Canadian)."

Search Features & Functionality

  • Past and current content—CBCA is updated daily with full-text content (1985 to present) and bibliographic content (1971 to present). Fully searchable abstracts are available for all full-text articles.
  • Seamless cross-database searching—Allows users to retrieve Canadian information across all ProQuest databases, including Canadian Newsstand.
  • Subject vocabulary has been standardized with ABI/INFORM®—To facilitate cross-database searching, core Canadian subject headings have been expanded upon and CBCA data has been reprocessed so that subject terms, article types, and geographic terms have as much consistency as is possible across the entire backfile.
  • OpenURL linking—Users can access articles or publications from other electronic resources.
  • Greater Searching Control—“Refine-as-you go” searching, “More Like This,” and Alerts means researchers can find exactly what they’re looking for.
