"Accounting and auditing resources..."

A recent article from C&RL News (College & Research Libraries) entitled "Accounting and auditing resources: Sites for the investor, academic, and practitioner" provides a very nice overview of accounting standard setting bodies, regulatory agencies, professional associations, licensing boards, blogs, information portals and other key web-based resources available at no cost.

Near the end of the article is and entry for the following subject guide:
Ten Steps to Accounting Research. Written by Peter Z. McKay, business librarian at the George A. Smathers Libraries at the University of Florida, this site explains how to organize the research process to find information on a particular accounting topic. References to print and electronic resources and links to relevant literature and bodies are included throughout the text. Access: http://web.uflib.ufl.edu/cm/business/tutors/acctutor.htm.
[Note: This subject guide links to some licensed resources available to students at the University of Florida - here at USFSP we have access to some but not all of the same resources. The key accounting databases available to USFSP students and faculty are Accounting Research Manager (CCH), the CCH Tax Research Network, and RIA Checkpoint, available from the main library page by clicking through databases by title/subject.]
