Business & Economics Research Assistant

I’m assembling background material for a series of business-and-economics manuscripts and academic papers and need help extracting the most relevant insights from printed sources. The work revolves around classic and contemporary books, government-issued reports, and other authoritative print materials rather than online blogs or random web articles.

You’ll be expected to:
• Locate and secure hard-copy or scanned chapters, tables, and appendices from key business and economics titles.
• Verify every figure, quotation, and citation against the original pagination.
• Produce concise chapter-by-chapter summaries, noting frameworks, data points, and any contradictions across authors.
• Record bibliographic details in Zotero or EndNote and log quantitative data in Excel or Google Sheets for quick reference.
• Flag gaps where supplemental sources might strengthen the argument—though the primary corpus must remain book-based.

Acceptance criteria
• All summaries are delivered in clear academic prose, free of plagiarism, with page numbers cited.
• Data tables align 100 % with the original text; spot checks will be performed.
• Zotero/EndNote library is fully populated and exportable.

When you respond, attach a detailed project proposal outlining your research workflow, sample timeline, and any previous experience handling print-first studies in business or economics. I’ll review proposals this week and invite the strongest match to a short kickoff call.
