Directory of Publishers and Vendors

Associations and Institutes

Five related and very useful directories are:

	Associations on the Net, maintained by the Internet Public Library,
	The Scholarly Societies Project from University of Waterloo,
	NIRA's World Directory of Think Tanks from the National Institute for Research Advancement, and
	IdeaList, a directory of nonprofits maintained by The Contact Center Network, Inc.
	International Organization Web Sites, compiled by the Union of International Associations

Unlike these resources, AcqWeb's list of associations and organizations is confined to those known to issue publications acquired by libraries.
