Statista: the Statistics Portal available from HARRASSOWITZ -- January 18, 2012
Do you need recent, relevant, and easily accessible statistical data
on just about everything? HARRASSOWITZ can help you in your search for
quantitative data, statistics and facts - by partnering with Statista,
the Hamburg, Germany based statistics portal, HARRASSOWITZ is able to
provide its customers with access to market data and facts on over
60,000 topics.
In her recent review of Statista in Library Journal (January 2012, p.
141), Bonnie Swoger wrote "institutions that choose to purchase the
product [the Statista database] will find that it will quickly become
the number one source for reference questions that begin with ‘I need
statistics on ....’"
With an initial focus on Germany and the US and Canada, Statista
combines public data with private resources to generate customized
graphs and charts in multiple formats from any retrieved data that can
then be integrated into presentation and reporting applications such
as PowerPoint and Excel. Simple and convenient in its application,
Statista is already being used by over 140 European libraries and top
business and media corporations.
Access to the Statista database is available on an annual subscription
basis with discounts for orders placed before June 2012. Pricing is
set by FTEs. 60-day institution-wide trials are offered. Invoicing and
other administrative services are provided by HARRASSOWITZ.
Demonstrations of the Statista portal will be given during the ALA
Midwinter Meeting in Dallas TX, January 20 - 23, 2012 at the
HARRASSOWITZ booth (nos. 2428/2429, Dallas Convention Center Exhibit
Hall) - if you are attending ALA Midwinter, please do stop by. If not,
please contact [log in to unmask] or your HARRASSOWITZ Regional
Sales Manager to request more information and set up a trial.
