ABOUT DEBBIES BOOK AND THE SOURCEBOOKONLINE
Since we are no longer a paperback book, our resources will now be referred to as TheSourcebookOnline.
Each year we would increase the scope of the book sources to include and provide a broader appeal to
those working in all entertainment-related industries. As the entertainment business itself changes so
does the focus of many of our companies.
Our original online database was created 15 years ago for dial up usage. Now that modern technology
exists with capabilities not available in 1997 we have completely revamped the website to cater to our
users more. These changed include the ability to search through the database, create personal lists of
companies printable from any computer, and many other features on the way.
A NOTE FROM DEBBIE
This is still a hands on database. Listings are verified, new companies come old companies go out of
business or change the direction of their business.
We continue to make sure all sources are those who have worked in the entertainment industry and know
the needs of a fast paced environment.
The odd and the unusual has always been our focus and we are now able to expand to new places,
services, and products with our new web site that would never have fit in a book.
WE´VE BEEN THE INDUSTRY’S GO-TO GUIDE SINCE 1978
It started out as a simple three ring binder in the 60's, just a collection of names and addresses. The very
first edition was typed on a electric typewriter 1978and the first version of the web site was launched in
1997. We hope to expand with new features and continue to be at the forefront as the most comprehensive
and quality assured resource for the industry we have always been known for.

USER TESTIMONIALS
"DEBBIES BOOK has been a great source of materials
and services for me for over a decade."
- JC Brown
Graphic Designer,Art Directors Guild
Since it's first publication in 1978, The Source Book has
been a steadfast part of my reference library.
It's as valuable to me on distant location as it is when I'm
working on a studio lot, providing resources for all the
oddest or most obscure items which invariably appear in
the scripts I design. As a guest lecturer at USC Film
School among others, I always introduce The Source
Book to my students who are awed by compilation. Its
on-line presence will surely make our lives even easier!
- Mimi Gramatky
Production Designer, Art Directors Guild

and Costume Designers find the usual and the unusual in
an easy format. It is constantly updated and on line."
