Bloomberg Professional is a terminal-based resource, which means that it is not available remotely. One of the Bloomberg Terminals is located in the Carr Library on the Livingston campus. A total of four Bloomberg terminals are located at Rutgers Business School at New Brunswick/Piscataway (located on the fifth floor of 100 Rockefeller Road at Livingston Campus) and Rutgers Business School at Newark. An additional eight Bloomberg terminals are available for students who are enrolled in the Mathematical Finance Program (Rm. 103 Hill Center) and Financial Statistics and Risk Management Program (Rm. 480 Hill Center).
