Bloomberg Terminal Research Guide: CREATE ACCOUNT

Clark Atlanta University School of Business and Morehouse Division of Business & Economics: Please be advised the schools have their own Bloomberg terminals on-campus lab. If you have already created a Bloomberg account with your respective school, you cannot access that Bloomberg account in the Library. You will have to create a new account on the Library Bloomberg terminals. Accounts created on a Library Bloomberg terminal cannot be used at any Bloomberg terminal at Clark Atlanta University or Morehouse College. 

If you do not have a Bloomberg account set up yet and would like to create one at a Library Bloomberg terminal, you are welcome to do so. 

Bloomberg Terminals are available in the Bloomberg Finance Lab, or room 207 on the Main Level of the RWWL Library.  You must have an AUC Institution ID to enter the library.
