Thomson West
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
West (also known by its original name, West Publishing, and currently a subsidiary of Thomson Reuters) publishes legal, business, and regulatory information in print, and on electronic services such as Westlaw. Its headquarters is in Eagan, Minnesota and has offices in Cleveland, Ohio and Rochester, New York.
West was founded in 1872 in St. Paul, Minnesota by John B. West as West Publishing Company. Thomson purchased the company in 1996. Thomson also combined a number of other law book companies purchased by either Thomson or West, including Bancroft-Whitney, Banks-Baldwin, Barclay, Callaghan & Company, Clark Boardman, Foundation Press, Gilbert's, Harrison, Lawyers Cooperative Publishing, and Warren, Gorham & Lamont. It also publishes some treatise titles purchased from Shepard's (but not Shepard's Citations). From 1997 to 2004, it was known as "West Group."
