Hello,
Thanks for all of the suggestions. The following is a summary of responses:
BNA Daily Report for Executives: No suggestions.
BNA Daily Labor Reports:
"I don't think there are replacements for BNA's. I was in a labor library at
a law firm for 5 years and it is essential. You can use however, the Dept of
Labor & EEOC website to compliment. But all practicing labor lawyers use
BNA's...more than official sites."
"Findlaw has a nice human resources email it sends out for free that, while
much simpler than the Daily Labor Report, still does a nice job. Did I
mention free?"
"We had a faculty member tell us that there was no substitute for the Daily
labor reporter. We will probably get the paper for her beginning in June."
BNA Daily Tax Reports:
"For the tax materials, you should look at Tax Notes Today from Tax Analysts
(They also do Worldwide Tax Daily and State Daily). We get both - but most
attorneys opt for TNT over BNA. Tax Analysts are at http://www.tax.org
(they are the reason Private letter rulings are no longer private - kind of
a tax watchdog company)."
"We just switched from BNA Daily Tax Report to Tax Notes Today from Tax
Analysts. We get the daily e-mails of the highlights and can see the full
text of articles by clicking on the links."
"I only have info on the tax report: Tax Analyst offer a $50/yr subscription
to their daily e-mails, CCH, if you have their Internet access, offers a
free daily e-mail that can be customized and I just found out that RIA
Checkpoint has BNA Daily Tax on their service, but I have not checked into
it yet. I did a similar law-lib request several months ago and the above is
all the information I knew or had gathered from responses. Good luck. "
"The tax attorneys here have been using for the past 18 months CCH's Tax
Tracker online to which we switched after having the BNA Daily Report in
print for years. The latter got stuck on people's desks & by the time they
got routed to the last person on the list, it was very out-of-date. The
CCH product is also less expensive."
"If you have Westlaw, and if Westlaw makes it available, which I believe it
does, my rep taught me something fantastic: I can set up a Westclip with, in
my case, BNA-PLD [Product Liability Daily] and an e-mail delivery is FREE."
