Academic Libraries Added to CCH Tax and Accounting’s Accounting Research Manager

(RIVERWOODS, ILL., September 7, 2004) – Accounting classes now can access CCH Tax and Accounting’s Accounting Research Manager (ARM) – the premier research database of accounting, auditing, SEC and governmental authoritative literature and interpretive guidance. CCH Tax and Accounting is a leading provider of tax and accounting information, software and services (tax.cchgroup.com).

"The Accounting Research Manager brings together precisely the resources that professionals reach for first – authoritative literature from standard setters and the insightful interpretations from our experts and the popular Miller Series," said Cynthia Arias, product manager. "That makes it the perfect tool to educate students on how to conduct financial reporting research."
