The Yahoo! Finance page and Hoovers.com have become recognized staples for business researchers. They are good
place to begin for company and economic information. Yahoo! Finance is
one of the most comprehensive databases for current and historical
company data and investment information and money market data.
Composite data for some industries is also available and researchers
can find financial information such as annual reports and SEC filings.
Free Hoovers.com has less information than the paid subscription but
both are wonderful starts for basic company facts.
Search Strategy
Resources for business and economics tend to overlap in content. It
can be challenging to limit your resources to specific material.
After searching the online catalog at alicat.austincc.edu,
you can best identify appropriate titles by checking the summary and
the subject listings for each item. You may also click the subject
listings to find related titles.
Browsing the shelves is another trusted approach to finding
business and economic titles. Items of a certain subject are grouped
