Information Literacy Instruction on
the Wasserman Trading Floor
Baruch College's Newman library works with the Zicklin School of Business and its Wasserman Trading Floor to offer workshops in business and finance. The Trading Floor serves as a technology enhanced venue where we use real-time data from Reuters and Bloomberg for pragmatic information literacy learning.
Members of the Newman Library faculty with special training and experience in business information resources teach over 50 workshops on the trading floor reaching more than 1,000 students each year.
The following workshops are held regularly:
Reuters I: Introduction to Reuters 3000Xtra
Reuters II: Using Powerplus Pro and Model Browser
Reuters: Technical Analysis
Reuters: Futures
Reuters: Options
Reuters: Fixed Income
Bloomberg I
Bloomberg II
Descriptions of each workshop, the current workshop schedule, and a registration form are available on the Library Workshop Registration Site.
