Textbooks are available covering all aspects of accounting, as well as extensive journal holdings. Electronic journals can be found in their host databases via the Databases page of this wiki.

ABI/INFORM has the largest amount of publications available on it and is an excellent database to start with.

External Resources

There are many external webpages that can assist the student of accountancy. These may be via Internet Gateways, which essentially take the browser to free sources of information that have been vetted by experts. Two of the best examples of this type of resource are

As well as these Gateways there are many professional organisations which have useful information on their websites. Here is a list of some that you may find useful.
