My private data base about books and articles concerning issues related to typography in one way or the other currently contains about 500 entries and is growing on a weekly basis (whenever there is time to read that is). But much more important in my eyes is talking to and working with typographers, publishers, editors, authors, etc. something we try to do as much as possible. There is not a single book or a small number where we would say ``that's our basis'' but perhaps I'm misunderstanding your question completely. Frank
