Tax Analysts produces a variety of comprehensive state, federal, and international news, analysis, and commentary publications for tax professionals on a daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly basis. In addition, Tax Analysts publishes its own tax services, Federal Tax Library and OneDisc. However, what Tax Analysts is best known for in the tax community is its outstanding news publications Tax Notes and Tax Notes Today (TNT).
The daily Tax Analysts news services, available only online, offer up-to-the-minute coverage of federal (Tax Notes Today), state (State Tax Today), and international (Worldwide Tax Daily) tax news. The weekly print series includes Tax Notes, State Tax Notes, and Tax Notes International. The Tax Analysts newsletters also are available through LexisNexis. Tax Notes Today is updated continually throughout the day, not just once a day, so practitioners can be as up to date as they desire. The amount of information included in these newsletters is staggering.

BNA offers four different ways to do a keyword search in the tax databases: Quick Search, Advanced Search, Go To, and Guided Search.
