The Library has extensive collections of business information, both current and historical.
Focusing on Australia, these collections include annual reports, industry directories, databases, yearbooks, compilations of current and historical census data and a wide selection of economic and demographic statistics.
If you're starting up a small business, studying long-term company performance or adding to your family history, the Library's business collections are a great resource.
Besides information on companies and industry, we have an abundance of information on business practice, strategic management, finance and international trade.
We also provide on-site access to key business databases, like Morningstar DatAnalysis, Proquest Business and Business Source Premier, which have information on companies, industries, products, markets and technologies.
Information about specific services, products, manufacturers and key business people is readily available in our print and online business directories.
Two key collections, Annual reports 1950–94 on microfiche and Company announcements 1980–96 on CD-ROM, provide access to official company documents.
The Library's Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) collection complements statistics provided by the ABS online. Also offered online and in print are statistics produced by the International Monetary Fund, the OECD and the United Nations.
