Business

The Business Information Center offers information about investments, careers, and starting and running a business, in one convenient location.

The business collection is located in the Adult Room just beyond the Adult Reference Desk. Plentiful parking and comfortable seating welcomes you and we encourage you to use our amenities such as our conference room and coffee bar.

We also provide magazines and directories at our “branch on the web” to support our print and audiovisual collection.

Do not hesitate to ask for help from any of our reference librarians during your visit. Bear in mind that you may also ask questions through email or phone as well.
