Website launch 
The Knowledge Centre is pleased to announce the launch of its completely revised site, which is designed to help you find the information you need, when you need it.  
 
We have created ‘Knowledge Guides’, previously called specialist subject packs, which include detailed and up-to-date resources covering key topics of interest such as Anti-Money Laundering, and will be updated on a regular basis. 
 
Members and candidates will also find ‘Australian articles’ and ‘International articles’, previously called the articles of interest, which include latest news from Australia and around the world.  
 
In addition, the Knowledge Centre has added new features to the site, including 'Search our collection' a complete list of all online resources, such as the catalogue of our print and audio visual publications and subscriptions, the EBSCO business news and current affairs databases, as well as superannuation and estate planning bulletins. We have added major subject area portals which allow members and candidates to view key resources by topics such as business management, career development, and taxation. You will also find details of the latest online free trials from LexisNexis and Thomson. 
 
The new website was designed for members and candidates, and we would love to hear whether you find it useful, or if there is something we have not covered. Please let us know what you think, by calling the Knowledge Centre on 1800 809 828, or emailing knowledge@charteredaccountants.com.au. 
 
Book sale 
The collection review is continuing and books that have been removed from the collection are now available for sale. The Knowledge Centre has just added a new list where members and candidates will find items on the website at reduced prices. These lists are very popular, so members and candidates should move quickly if there is something that they are interested in purchasing. Please call or email the Knowledge Centre to order an item.
