Bloomberg Terminal

The Bloomberg Terminal provides financial data and analytical tools. It must be accessed from an application installed on several dedicated computers across campus - 4 in Mudd A035, 1 on the second level of Mudd, and 2 in Bosworth 203A. Students accessing the A-level Mudd terminals after 5pm must enter Mudd through main doors leading to the library, then go down the main staircase or yellow elevator (to the left of the front doors) to enter the lower level. 

Reserve a time to use the A035 Bloomberg terminals.
