Morningstar is a trusted name in financial analysis. While its flagship product, Morningstar.com, has been available in our Business, Science, and Industry Department at the Parkway Central Library for some time, we are pleased to announce that this resource is now available at all Free Library locations. Use Morningstar for in-depth analysis of stocks, mutual funds, ETFs, and more. Their interactive portfolio tools and articles will also help ensure you are investing wisely. Visit any FLP location with your laptop or use one of our public PCs and visit our database page to get started.

Can’t make it to an FLP branch? No worries - we have financial resources you can access from anywhere when you login with your library card number and PIN. Take a look at ValueLine, another trusted name in finance. ValueLine’s in-depth analysis of company stocks is second-to-none and their selections and opinions are legendary. For detailed company histories, research, and evaluation, give Mergent a try. Find information on corporate and municipal bonds in the Mergent/Moody’s Digital Manuals.  All of these resources are available via the web from your location. Access begins at our database page with your library card number and PIN.

However, if it is genuine research expertise you need, our Business, Science, and Industry Department at the Parkway Central Library is the place to start. Here you will find many excellent resources, both in print and via online subscription, that are simply not available at any other public institution in Philadelphia, not to mention a staff of dedicated librarians well versed in business and financial research. Take a look at their website and Facebook page to learn more.
