ReferenceUSA provides library cardholders instant, real-time access to accurate, in-depth information on 14 million businesses and 210 million consumers. It is very easy to navigate, so even computer novices will feel at ease searching ReferenceUSA.
The consumer information in ReferenceUSA is gathered primarily from telephone white pages and can be used for a number of things, including planning family reunions and weddings, organizing class reunions, finding neighbors or long-lost friends, and locating relatives.
The business information is gathered from a variety of reliable sources, such as yellow and white pages, annual reports, 10-Ks, government data, business magazines, top newspapers, the U.S. Postal Service, Internet research, and the U.S. Census Bureau. In fact, 22 million phone calls are placed annually to businesses to verify the accuracy of data. The quality of the information is validated by the fact that infoUSA databases power the directory services of many of the top-traffic Internet sites. And, the Wall Street Journal, in its August 29, 2006, issue, even proclaimed ReferenceUSA to be a “powerful market-research tool” crucial to small businesses. ReferenceUSA’s business module is perfect for people conducting job searches, locating out-of-town companies, tracking down addresses and phone numbers, conducting patent and market research, and much more.
ReferenceUSA is accessible to registered cardholders at the Warwick Public Library. All patrons need to put this powerful, comprehensive and accurate information at their fingertips is their library card.
