Lansing Economic Club: Rod Alberts & Scott LaRiche

Kellogg Hotel & Conference Center 219 S Harrison Rd, East Lansing

Detroit has hosted an auto show for over a century. For the first several decades of its existence, however, the show's focus was strictly regional. Then, in 1987, a visionary group of auto dealers within the Detroit Auto Dealers Association (DADA) asked a bold question: Why not make the event truly international in scope?Achieving this objective within only a few years' time, the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) pursues a vision of continually redefining what it means to be an indispensable international event. To achieve this goal, the NAIAS continually introduces bold new ways to enhance attendees' experiences and deliver exceptional value to media, industry and the public.Speakers: Rod Alberts, Executive Director and Scott LaRiche, 2015 Chairman

In this webinar, Emily Treptow will discuss the applications of globalEDGE to librarianship, and then Sarah Singer will provide an in-depth demonstration of the resource. globalEDGE is especially compelling because of the depth of information that it provides for free. This is a resource that academic librarians can point community members to. It is also a resource that public librarians who cant afford to subscribe to international business databases can easily utilize.
