Daily Article Reading

Python

🚴 I have created a set of simple Python codes to help feed my daily readings from some key accounting journals:

AOS (Accounting, Organizations and Society)
JAE (Journal of Accounting and Economics)
JAR (Journal of Accounting Research)
RAS (Review of Accounting Studies)
TAR (The Accounting Review)
BAR (The British Accounting Review)
EAR (European Accounting Review)

This is helpful when you have some general topic on head and want to check out what studies have been recently published. 😄

For Mac OS (with keyword searching)

import webbrowser

# Search term - change this to your desired search query

search_term = "KEYWORDS" # Replace 'KEYWORDS' with any search term, e.g., 'accounting+standards'

# Specify the path to your Google Chrome executable using a raw string

chrome_path = '/Applications/Google Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google Chrome' # Replace the chrome path with the one installed in your macbook

# URLs formatted with the search term

urls = [

# Register the Chrome browser with the specified path
