Fall Seminar Sponsor - 10k Wizard - Announces a Name Change

Conveying Your Value is the theme for the 2009 San Diego Chapter Fall Seminar.  Seminar planners Mary Wickline and Nancy Stimson of UCSD Libraries look forward to welcoming you to this esteemed professional development event on Friday October 9 at Amylin Pharmaceuticals in University City.  Registration will open soon, so watch this space and your e-mail for details.

In the meantime we want to recognize a Fall Seminar sponsor and share with you their big news.

10-K Wizard is now Morningstar Document Research. The new Document Research platform goes beyond the US annual filings (10-K form) to enable streamlined global company research.  Its new name is intended to reflect the breadth of the offering.

While the name has changed, Morningstar Document Research continues to provide the full-text search capabilities, real-time alerts, and robust data extraction tools that are a vital resource for clients who conduct in-depth research. We are also planning to take advantage of additional features and functionality that we’ll be able to offer as part of a larger, global organization.
