“One of the first things I did upon my hiring was ask my senior vice president to approve a subscription to BNA's Human Resources Library. He immediately saw the cost-saving benefit of a Library subscription, but for me, the biggest benefit of having BNA is that it enhances the professional image and development of the Human Resources staff as well as our responsiveness to managers and employees when we don't immediately know the answer to a question or have an immediate solution."

--Edward Rundle
Director, Human Resources Management

“Having a subscription to the Library means I don’t have to wait until an outside attorney gets to his office the next day to look up the answer. Everything is forever changing in HR, so we use BNA just to make sure we’re changing right along pace.”

--Ed Lazar
Vice President, Human Resources

"Even if you subscribe to other newsletters, they don't have the full range of guidance you get from BNA."

--Martin C. Armstrong, CPP
Payroll Director

"BNA's AnswerSource has saved time and money, in that I don't have to wait for a call back from our attorney. It is also helpful when I need to prove a point. Often, employees or supervisors may not like the answer they receive from an HR person -- they need 'proof.' AnswerSource provides that proof."

--Patty R. Smith
Human Resources Manager

"I feel empowered when I use it, and when my peers have questions, I encourage them to ... find the answers for themselves. And they do, successfully."

--Wanda Troutt
Assistant Vice President, Human Resources

“There are issues and questions that come up in day-to-day life that I don’t feel comfortable answering based on memory alone. Because regulations change, I need a service that keeps pace with these changes. That’s why I rely on BNA HR products to do the research for me.”

--Rhonda Stiver
Manager

"BNA makes us look extremely professional and very knowledgeable. I get sales calls every week about new products on the market, but I'm getting to the point where I politely quickly decline them. Nothing out there that I am aware of matches BNA."

--Edward Rundle
Director, Human Resources Management

"There are lots of ways BNA's Payroll Library pays for itself. Weigh it against the money you save on penalties and interest. Amortize that over all the time you'll use it. Just going to a few seminars a year equals the price of the whole Library. So many things in payroll change, you want someone else to do the work of keeping up. The Late-Breaking Payroll Information and E-Mail Updates are worth the price of admission. The Payroll Library is more current than some states' own Websites. And shortcuts and hot keys on the new platform have made it quicker and easier.

--Martin C. Armstrong, CPP
Payroll Director

"The best source of information available for benefits professionals. I can always find what I'm looking for quickly and easily.... BNA's service was invaluable in terms of how to develop a plan and communicate it to employees. The accessibility to government forms is a real plus. We are sold. I'd recommend it to all my colleagues.

--Elizabeth Sturgess
Benefits Manager

"Having access to BNA's AnswerSource has made my job so much easier! The ability to simply type in a question or even a few key words, knowing I would get several -- many! -- answers, has saved me an incredible amount of time and frustration. It is so much easier than going through books and manuals, looking through indexes and tables of contents, to find a quick answer."

--Patty R. Smith
Human Resources Manager
