Hospitality, Tourism and Leisure Collection

This database provides access to selected content from over 500 industry journals and news sources covering both historic and current issues relating to the cultural, leisure and economic aspects of tourism. The collection also has information from travel handbooks so that you can research travel possibilities to help with that life/work balance.

I tried “ash cloud” as a search term since that is certainly something that concerns air travellers at the moment. The most recent items were from industry journals dated 29 June, which is less than a week ago, so the database is certainly up to date. In addition to the the tourism aspects of transport, the database also has a wide coverage of the more industrial aspects of transport issues.

You can find it in the library section of my.lawsociety under EPIC databases, then Gale database.
