Sports Industry Information Guide

Information on the business of sport will be found in a wide range of sources held by or subscribed to by the British Library. This guide highlights those sources which have a specific focus on the sports industry, most of which are available in the library’s Business and Intellectual Property Centre. However a search of the library’s catalogues and a trawl of websites will reveal many other sources which cover specific aspects of the industry. In particular, information sources on the leisure, tourism, retailing, food and drinks industries will all contain material of relevance.

The guide contains information on the following:

• trade and market data
• new product development & technical innovation
• navigating the web
• academic research activity
• sports industry information sources at the British Library
• market research reports
• trade press and directories
