It Is not about InformatIon overload. It’s about having the right information. The ImageMakers 2008 Resource Guide gives customers to the sign industry a one-stop shop. Inside, you will find sign industry data pertaining to permits and regulations for each city, province and or region. Also included are province specific listings of companies qualified to carry out work. The final component is a head office listing complete with contact information. The Resource Guide’s hard cover and coil bound format makes it a lasting reference tool. To further increase the readership value, we have included our regular editorial line-up. This includes a feature on the state of LED technologies with some interesting comment from some major manufacturers. I hope you find our Resource Guide valuable and, as always, look forward to your comments and suggestions. Stevev McLinden Publisher
