This guide provides information and links to career resources and help for you to complete your course assignments.

How do I find company information?

The easiest way to find reliable company information is by searching library databases that focus on this kind of information, such as:

  • Business Insights
  • Mergent Intellect
  • Nexis Uni, and
  • Value Line (public companies only)

If a company is very small and private, you probably won't find a lot of information on it. But if the company is large and public, you'll find plenty!

How do I search for company profiles in library databases?

To find a company profile, use the search bar to enter the name and click "Search." Make sure "Company" is selected as the search type.
