Why did we get this American Accounting Association collection?

Faculty requests, including from the head of the accounting department, was the primary reason.
Secondly, and this is why the faculty wanted the database:
This is the only way to access the current year of these journals. (Available backfiles vary by title.)
The American Accounting Association, comprised primarily of academic accountants, decided to end their arrangements with outside vendors for access to the current year of their journals. The database was reasonably priced to libraries for campus and remote access.

In the current issue of Issues in Accounting Education, Baruch professors Hugo Nurnberg and Jan Sweeney have an article published on understanding business combinations. There is also a case study on the tax consequences of appearing on reality television. (That "redone" home might increase your taxes, in case you are hoping to be on a show.)

No log in is required to access the database. (If professors are full members of the AAA, they can access some materials with their private passwords that are not available to the public.)

Thanks to Mike Waldman for help in getting this database and providing the information on the library's web page.
