When Dollars Meet Discovery in the Library’s Business Lab

Financial literacy might sound like a modern buzzword, but its roots run deep in the quest for everyday empowerment. Behind the scenes at the Science, Technology & Business Division, a recent project set out to make sense of the sprawling universe of personal finance—from the basics of budgeting to the intricacies of investment. Instead of letting the web’s endless advice overwhelm, the team distilled essential resources into a clear, accessible guide. Along the way, they mapped out the landscape of trade associations and professional paths, revealing how financial planning connects with broader economic life. The result is a toolkit designed to help anyone navigate money matters with more confidence and less confusion. In a world where information overload is the norm, clarity is the real currency. #FinancialLiteracy #LibraryResources #PersonalFinance #Culture
