New Search Features Added to Bloomberg BNA Tax and Accounting Center

Bloomberg BNA has released new search enhancements to the Bloomberg BNA Tax & Accounting Center.

The new features, called Links and Pages, are designed to help tax practitioners directly access key tax topics, tax summaries of key jurisdictions, and the Internal Revenue Code sections they need with fewer clicks.

The new search enhancements provide an integrated shortcut to a wealth of content, analysis and key insights, including Bloomberg BNA’s renowned Tax Management Portfolios, on a specific tax topic, transaction or Internal Revenue Code section. These unique search features save time and streamline tax research by providing direct links to keyword definitions, related analysis, primary sources, and practice tools and explanations, helping tax practitioners — from novice to advanced researchers — get to the information they need faster than ever. With practitioners increasingly accustomed to utilizing search engines for their research questions, the Pages and Links deliver relevant, expert-written content in an accelerated manner and in an easy-to-use format.

Developed by Bloomberg BNA’s team of in-house tax experts and developed with input from practitioners, Links appear alongside search results with links to relevant content on the Tax and Accounting Center while Pages provide expanded explanations and highlight critical aspects of a specific tax topic users are researching and offer definitions, components, eligibility, examples, advantages and disadvantages, and more.

“Tax practitioners from across the globe continue to tell us that they need to access specific tax information quickly and efficiently,” said Lisa Fitzpatrick, Bloomberg BNA Vice President and Group Publisher, Tax & Accounting. “Our focus in developing Links and Pages is to direct tax professionals as quickly as possible to the specific piece of intelligence they need to guide their clients while dramatically reducing their time spent searching.”
