Accounting Research Manager is a comprehensive database of expert-written analytical accounting, auditing, government, and SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) information as well as full-text access to the primary source data used by accountants and auditors on a daily basis.

It includes original pronouncements, statements, opinions, and guides from the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), the Association of Independent Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).  Official rules and orders from the Public Company Auditing Oversight Board (PCAOB) are also included.

Please note:  due to licensing restrictions, access to this database is provide to only ONE user at a time.

Pro & Con Online provides access to the archives of the journals Congressional Digest, Supreme Court Debates, and International Debates from 1921 onward.  Its aim is to provide an "impartial view of controversial issues."  It is searchable by subject, journal title, or most recent issues of each journal title.  Note:  due to licensing restrictions, access to this database is available on campus only.

The Auburn University Libraries welcomed new and returning students back to campus on August 16-17, 2007 with the Information Oasis tent on the concourse outside of Haley Center.  We offered cold water during the 100-degree weather, highlighters, magnets, and pens as freebies.  Librarians were also on hand to answer students' questions about campus.

The photos have been mounted on the Flickr site for your viewing enjoyment.

Edited by Fred Skolnik and Michael Berenbaum, this 22-volume set, published by Macmillan Reference USA in association with the Keter Publishing House in 2007, is the Second Edition.  The First Edition was published in 1972 and is 16 volumes long.  The Second Edition is located on the Second Floor of the Ralph Brown Draughon Library under call number DS 102.8 .E496 2007.

Online access to this database has been greatly improved recently:  instead of requiring the assistance of a Reference Librarian to log in, Valueline.com now is available to an unlimited number of simultaneous users (must be an Auburn University student, faculty, member or staff member to use off campus). 

Like the print publication, Valueline.com provides investment research on stocks, mutual funds, options, and convertibles, and offers a family of no-load mutual funds.  Effective 2008:  the print subscription to The Value Line Investment Survey located on the Second Floor of the Ralph Brown Draughon Library in the Reference Collection under call number HG 4501 .V26, will be replaced by the online version profiled here with the exception of the "Selection and Opinion" section of which the Library will retain only the current year.

This is the Second Edition, published in 2002.  It contains 600 detailed articles and overviews of all the key information needs of small business owners, including financing, financial planning, business plan creation, market analysis, sales strategy, tax planning, and human resource issues.  The Encyclopedia of Small Business can be accessed by clicking on The Gale Virtual Reference Library link and then the "Business" link located in the lower left hand side of the screen.

This title is part of The Gale Virtual Reference Library , a database of 18 encyclopedias and specialized reference sources for multidisciplinary research published by Thomson Gale.  These works fall under the subjects of Business, the Environment, History, Literature, Medicine, the Nation and the World, Science, and Social Science.  Additional individual works will be profiled in forthcoming What's New library updates.
