With our economy feeling poorly, you may find yourself wanting to do more business research, not less, if only to make sure that the business you do engage in is not too risky.ABI/INFORM Global is a ProQuest business database which can help keep you on top of the information curve. In this database you will find articles from worldwide business periodicals containing information on advertising, marketing, economics, human resources, finance, taxation, and computers. For example, search for the word investing in articles from the last three months, and find such useful titles as Your Money Matters (A Special Report): Alternative Investing --- Alternative Answers, and How to Profit From Obamanomics.
If you come into the library to read our investment and business newsletters, this database may be a great resource to access from your home or business. If you come into the library to peruse our Value Line binders (don't forget Value Line is now online!), you may also want to try the ABI/INFORM Trade Industry database for research on particular companies or industries. In this database you will find articles that track business conditions, trends, management techniques, corporate strategies, and industry-specific topics worldwide. For example, search for the word Seattle in articles from the last three months to see how local companies are holding up.
Happy investing!
