EXECUTIVE LIBRARY
Welcome to Dr. Joe's Executive Library
Here are links to a myriad of resources for anyone doing research on the printing industry or needing a convenient place to find industry data. There are many categories of data:
Graphic Arts Manufacturers and Vendors - hundreds of suppliers to the industry, arranged alphabetically.
U.S. Government - includes links to Census data and other statistics.
2002 Economic Census - download these essential documents that every printing industry researcher must have.
1997 Economic Census - download these essential documents that every printing industry researcher must have.
Canada Government - resources for the industries of Canada, but these often have great worldwide and U.S. data.
Industry Publications - printing and graphic arts magazines and publications often have helpful perspectives for researchers, usually with searchable data bases of past issues.
Industry Associations - associations can be prime sources for great industry data and also personally helpful to researchers and others become familiar with the industries they represent.
Other Resources - some other data sources that belong in every researcher's bag of tricks.
Colordigital.com Data Base - Here's the data base of digital printing companies that was formerly at colordigital.com. It's here now as we've put the colordigital.com project on hiatus until we find a new publisher. We are not accepting any submissions to the data base; data are current as of December 2000. (Any parties interested in resuming publishing of the directory should contact Dr. Webb).
