National directories focus on the companies of an
individual country. In general, these individual country directories
tend to include more listings for that particular country than do directories
of international scope.
To retrieve such directories from CATNYP (The Research Libraries' Online Catalog),
simply include the country name in your search query, along with such
terms as corporations, business enterprises, industries, etc. Browsing
the list of worldwide business directory sources
(alphabetically organized by country name) will also give you a good
idea of what is available onsite at SIBL.
