The Information Center’s purpose is to speed up the process of finding information specific to IAMC and information that’s relevant to the Active members’ work.  

The information center is not an important source of information about the following:

• Economic development
• Construction issues
• Facility management
• Architecture and engineering
• Office property issues
• Retail property issues

We can provide back issues of the following publications:

• Site Selection magazine
• IAMC Dispatch Newsletter
• IAMC Notes
• IAMC press releases

To retrieve a back issue, mouse over the "Periodical Archives" menu item with the cursor and click on the specific issue of the publication that you need.  

Scroll through the reports and click on the one you want. You’ll need Adobe Acrobat Reader in order to complete the download.  

Mouse over the "Demographic & Statistical Sources" menu item and when the drop down menu appears scroll down to "Back of America Economic Indicators" or "Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis Charts." These will have all of the commonly use government statistics.  

Mouse over the "Demographic & Statistical Sources" menu item and scroll down to "Hoovers" and "SEC Financial Explorer."  

Mouse over the "Demographic & Statistical Sources" menu item and scroll down to "Development Alliance."  

First, go to the home page and use the "search" box. Type in the CRE term on which you need information and press "enter". Make that term as short as you can. You can also use quotation marks, wild card characters (*) or the minus sign to refine your search. Also, try several variations of it to see how these change results presented.

Second, use the menu item "Index Search" and scroll down to the term that is mostly likely to cover your topic.  

If you are seeking information about a core CRE topic, which is not listed on the index, please propose that the topic be added to the index in an e-mail to Joel Parker. He will track the requests and add new index topics when the number of requests suggests this is appropriate.
