Using LexisNexis for Accounting

The reference practicum discussed accounting databases at our meeting this week. The new LexisNexis interface hides the accounting search. Here's how to find it. Clicking on the "Business" tab defaults to the Company Dossier, but on the right of the screen various "Business Searches" are available including accounting. The LexisNexis accounting library includes both the Wiley GAAP series and the GAAP Guide Levels A, B, and C (the former Miller GAAP Guides). GAAP Guides discuss the FASB standards and give practical examples of how to apply specific accounting principles.
