NEW Resource Spotlight: ReferenceUSA


The Haltom City Public Library has added a new useful research source for its patrons, ReferenceUSA which  offers valuable information for both individuals and businesses.

Looking for a business?


ReferenceUSA's U.S. Business search contains records on over 45 million businesses in the U.S. with addresses, websites, phone numbers, top level personnel, and more. Search by business name, type, or location. These databases are great research tools for finding businesses and services in an area and for marketing and business development for your area.

Looking for a job?


ReferenceUSA's U.S. Jobs search integrates their power business search with job listings from Indeed.Com, a one of the web's most popular job search databases.  Not only does Indeed.Com lists openings available in the field and location you are interested in reviewing, it also gives additional information about the company hiring such as type of business, years in business, number of employees, employee reviews etc.

Looking for a job opening within a specific company?


Click on US. Businesses, type in the name of the company and it will show if there are any current job openings and the job location.

Has a doctor or dentist been recommended to you?


U.S. Healthcare will show the doctor/dentist’s office address and phone number if listed in their database.  (If your doctor or dentist is not listed in U.S. Healthcare, it is not a reflection of their ability or qualifications.  It merely means they have not been entered into the database yet or prefer not to be listed.) Often other pertinent information will be shown such background information on the doctor as well as the insurances accepted if available.

Want to know how many new businesses are in your community?


New Businesses will show the new businesses within the time frame you have selected, the types of businesses and the addresses.

There are also databases for white page listings, consumer information, and new mover's and homeowners.
