• The library is again hosting “Meet your librarian” day, this year on September 8. I will be expanding this event (with a colleague or two) to a table in or near Pierre’s Landing. Please say hi if you are nearby!
• We have a very small amount of donor money for books this year. If you have something that you would like for me to purchase, and if it is essential to your research, please let me know. (this money is not transferable to any other resources, sorry. Book requests only.)
• You all know by now that we won’t be losing most of the LOUIS databases. (and none that I would consider essential to the Business College.) I don’t know what will happen next year.
• Finally, LSU Libraries subscribes to the WALL STREET JOURNAL (via Factiva.) Please let your students know, and please ask me to help with access if you need it with this database.

I will again have walk-in office hours in Patrick Taylor this fall. This semester I will be in the SMART Lab Conference room (2301 Patrick F. Taylor Hall) from 10:30 am until 1:30 pm on Wednesdays.
Please let your students know that I welcome them to come by for any type of help that they may need from the library. They may also email me for an appointment if they prefer to see me in Middleton. Help is also always available at the Middleton Reference desk.
Please remember that I am available to come to your classes and speak with your students about library resources. I can take as little as 10-15 minutes to introduce myself and cover library basics, or as much as an entire class session to give in-depth instruction. I am also happy to set up library workshops for your students outside of their class hours if you would like to offer extra credit to attendees.

Please keep the Library’s Business subject guide in mind. I’m always updating it with new resources. http://www.lib.lsu.edu/bus/index.html

It’s good to have a library full of students again. I hope to see each of you this semester, either here in Middleton or in Patrick Taylor.
Please let me know how I can help you to help your students. I am attaching a couple of resources that you may wish to add to your course resources.

(These sessions will be scheduled by request and availability. Please contact me as far in advance as possible if you would like to schedule a session for your students.)

SEC Announces Successor to EDGAR Database

2008-08-19T10:10:00.000-07:00

From the SEC Website:

“IDEA” Will Make Company and Fund Information Interactive

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
2008-179

Washington, D.C., Aug. 19, 2008 — Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Christopher Cox today unveiled the successor to the agency’s 1980s-era EDGAR database, which will give investors far faster and easier access to key financial information about public companies and mutual funds.

The new system is called IDEA, short for Interactive Data Electronic Applications. Based on a completely new architecture being built from the ground up, it will at first supplement and then eventually replace the EDGAR system. The decision to replace EDGAR marks the SEC’s transition from collecting forms and documents to making the information itself freely available to investors to give them better and more up-to-date financial disclosure in a form they can readily use.

National Endowment for the Arts announces new reading study

2007-11-20T07:54:00.000-08:00

Among the key findings:

Americans are reading less - teens and young adults read less often and for shorter amounts of time compared with other age groups and with Americans of previous years.

* Less than one-third of 13-year-olds are daily readers, a 14 percent decline from 20 years earlier. Among 17-year-olds, the percentage of non-readers doubled over a 20-year period, from nine percent in 1984 to 19 percent in 2004.1
* On average, Americans ages 15 to 24 spend almost two hours a day watching TV, and only seven minutes of their daily leisure time on reading.2

IBISWorld: Industry Market Research Reports “contain key statistics and easy to digest analysis. Each report, of 25-30 pages in length, is updated regularly, ensuring that they reflect the current state of an industry.” (The description is from the IBISworld web site.) This database is easy to use, and is a very nice resource for undergraduate students (as well as the rest of us.)
