Morningstar Investment Research Center Now Available

We’re excited to announce a new online resource for investment research and personal finance education available to Skaneateles Library cardholders! Morningstar Investment Research Center Library Edition provides our users with free access to trusted data and analysis from an industry leader in investment information.

There are so many ways to use Morningstar to learn about investing and improve your portfolio. Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been investing for years, you’ll find a wealth of valuable tools, information and analysis, as well as up-to-date financial information, news and commentary.

Morningstar makes it easy to find reliable information on companies, stocks, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds (ETF) and markets. You can access portfolio tools and calculators for retirement and college savings, see Morningstar’s fund and stock picks, choose funds and stocks based on your specific criteria and so much more.

Sharpen your investing skills—or pick up new ones—using the Investing Classroom’s educational mini-courses and videos. Then deepen your knowledge by exploring Morningstar’s popular newsletters from their mutual fund, stock and ETF strategists.

Visit our website at SkaneatelesLibrary.org (soon to be SkanLibrary.org – stay tuned!) to access Morningstar from home or in the library. All you need is your library card barcode and PIN to get started.
