How do I access the full-text of Harvard Business Review (HBR)?
23/01/2025
This is one of the most frequently asked questions in the School of Management Library, and it’s worth knowing how to access this key management journal.
So, how do you access HBR in full-text? The short answer is via EBSCO Business Source Complete. From the EBSCO home page, click on the Publications tab (underneath the main search boxes) and then, in the Browsing box, enter ‘Harvard Business Review’ and click on Browse.
A list of relevant sources is displayed. In the case of HBR we have access to every issue since its inception in 1922.
Clicking on the journal title will take you to a list of all the issues arranged by year. If you know the precise issue you need you can browse through the list.
Alternatively if you wish to search for articles within HBR simply type your keywords into the “Search within this publication” box and the journal will be added to your search. You can refine your search further using the normal search functions.
Searching our eJournals or Library Search for Harvard Business Review and following the links they provide will also take you to the issue listing.
So using this method you should be able to access and read the full-text of every HBR article ever published!
