DEC Publications Locator is your easiest way to obtain online or printed publications. This resource contains both publications that are available online and those that must be ordered.
How to Use Publications Locator
Online publications: A printed publication may have been converted into a web page to make it more accessible. Click on the title to view (check the file size shown next to each publication - a large file may take a few minutes to download). Once the publication is up on your screen, you can print it.
Print publications: Click on "Order a Copy." A blank e-mail will appear. Type in the publication title along with your name and mailing address, and hit Send. Your order will go directly to the appropriate DEC program. If no link is shown in the order column please call the division to request a printout of the online publication.
