2019 Product Resource Guide: A Year-Round Resource

Once a year, we take a break from our regular monthly routine of delivering our loyal readers a publication filled with engaging, informative articles on a variety of topics—from leadership and business management, to safety and design—to present another helpful tool, the Product Resource Guide.

The Product Resource Guide is invaluable to have on-hand all year round. The manufacturers and distributors directory, located in the back of the Guide, makes it quick and easy to find the right sources for your needs, and our ever-expanding online content ensures that you are up-to-date on all the latest trends and advancements.

Last year, we introduced our fun and informative Linda the lab manager video links, as well as new infographics, to the Guide. We continued that trend for this year’s edition, this time adding brand new Linda comics and additional video links, as well as updated versions of some of our Product Resource Guide staples, such as our online product finder, safety tips, and advice on purchasing and properly maintaining your new instruments.

We understand the importance of researchers and lab managers having all the necessary data in their hands before making an informed purchasing decision. But sifting through numerous websites, going through customer reviews, product stats, and the “pros and cons” of a specific instrument can quickly become overwhelming.

The purpose of the Product Resource Guide is to be that go-to, trusted tool to utilize when you’re in need, saving you time and allowing you to focus on what’s most important—the research.

The editors of Lab Manager are always here to provide the information, tips, and expert advice you need to keep your team at the forefront of innovation. And as always on LabManager.com, you’ll find news on the latest research & development breakthroughs, industry collaborations, and recent product releases, as well as articles on proper leadership, safety in the lab, and much more.

We hope you enjoy our enhanced editorial offerings in this year’s Product Resource Guide—Happy reading.

Lauren Scrudato,
Associate Editor
