Spotlight: Sports Business Research Network...

or SBRnet, as its friends like to call it. Want to know the average attendance at a Steelers game? Want to know how much U.S. consumers spend on sneakers? This subscription website/database is licensed for use by Slippery Rock students, faculty, and staff and contains a large quantity of sports marketing information.

Librarian Lynn Hoffmann informs us that the site premiered a new look today... users can more easily locate information on individual sports, products, and topics. Of interest to sport management majors are statistics and fact sheets on sport facilities, for example. Physical education majors might find statistics on sports participation. Business majors may be interested to see market research on consumer expenditures, import statistics, and attendance by sport. The new web interface makes searching SBRnet a more streamlined and seamless experience... take a look.
