The Seybold Report 

Note: this page contains a brief summation of the history and availability of the Seybold Report business-to-business newsletter. However, we have created an entire website for this newsletter. Please visit www.seyboldreport.media to access the full information about the newsletter, see historical photographs, and learn more about the history and ongoing life of this important publication.

Founded in the 1970s by John Seybold, the Seybold Report (ISSN: 1533-9211) is a newsletter with a long history and a strong tradition of serving its readers by delivering detailed and objective information and reviews of graphic arts technology, as well as informed and intelligent commentary about such technology. In June 2010, the Joss Group, a publishing and consulting company located in Pennsylvania, acquired the newsletter. To view a fascinating Computer History Museum oral history interview with Jonathan Seybold about the origins of the newsletter, Seybold Seminars, and Seybold Publications (both companies are now defunct), please click here. If you have materials related to the history of these companies including old issues of newsletters, please get in touch with us as we may be interested in acquiring the materials.

Seybold Report subscribers are graphic arts professionals and executives around the world. In addition, analysts, researchers, professors, students, and others subscribe. If your job concerns tracking, researching, purchasing, or studying technology used in the graphic arts, you will profit from a subscription to the Seybold Report!

The Seybold Report is a paid newsletter published twice a month (during the second and fourth weeks of each month). Subscribers receive an e-mail with a download link to access the PDF of each issue. 

The cost of a 24-issue, 12-month subscription is $599 US$. To subscribe to this newsletter online, please click here (opens a window to another Web site, international credit cards welcome). We also accept EFT, company checks, and other types of payment. Please contact us for more information on these.

This is an individual subscription, so please do not share the issue with others. No refunds will be made after the first two issues of a subscription have been served. We also have team/group and enterprise licenses available; please contact us for details on these options.

Our content is also available through a variety of online content providers including EBSCO, ProQuest, LexisNexis, and others. If you are interested in reading the content through these kinds of providers, please either contact us for details or ask your corporate librarians or researchers.

Please be aware there is an online scam Web site pretending to be the Seybold Report. They have even stolen our ISSN and are using the title The Seybold Report Journal. We have more details about this crime on the home page, and we are pursuing legal action against them. This is not our company. This is not our newsletter. Seybold Publications is not an extant company. This is an outrageous scam. Do not give them money, and please pass the word along.

To learn more about the outrageous pirating of scholarly journals and other publications, please read this article. More than 200 journals and newsletters (and probably more) have been affected by this, including ours.
