Foster Business Library


Plunkett's Almanacs



The latest editions of the Foster Business Library's Plunkett's Almanacs are located in the Foster Business Library reference collection (behind the Reference Desk in the center of the library's first floor). The list below is in alphabetic order by title; for a list in call number order, click here. The almanacs are catalogued by subject, each volume with its own call number; they are not shelved together as a set. The latest edition of each almanac is shelved in the Foster Business Library reference collection, with earlier editions shelved in the reference serials collection.

These almanacs offer information about major industry trends, industry statistics, industry information, major companies in the industry, with indexes by state, country, region, etc. The major part of each almanac provides one-page profiles of companies in the industry, with directory information, growth plans and special features, contacts, brief financials, brief salary and benefits data, and women officer-director and advancement information. Unfortunately, these almanacs lack a general index.
