Ranking of largest book manufacturers in the U.S. and Canada is based on each company's revenue earned within the book sector. This data was compiled by our sister publication Printing Impressions. Some notable organizations, such as RR Donnelley, choose not to disclose financial information on a per-sector basis. 

Transcontinental, the largest Canadian and the sixth-largest American printer, has announced that it has received triple chain-of-custody certification in all 45 of its facilities. These certifications from the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) and Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) ensure that the process by which the certified paper is made promotes sustainable forest-management standards.
