I'm looking for statistics on unemployment rates over the past seven years.

Answer

To find unemployment statistics for the last seven years, I suggest you access the U.S.  Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). On the BLS home page look for the "Unemployment Rate" link under the "Latest Numbers" heading on the right. Click on the 10-years historical data icon on the right.

To find articles on the same topic, go to the Business Research Guide and try searching databases called ABI/Inform and Business Source Complete. Use "unemployment rate" and "United States" as keywords. You will get a huge number of results. You can sort your results by publication date, limit your search to full text and scholarly articles. Also, look under SUBJECT for further suggestions to narrow your search.
