I-Connect007’s technical library was created in 2016 with the launch of its first title, The Printed Circuit Buyer’s Guide to AS9100 Certification. Created to satisfy a need for readily available, free technical resources, the library has become a powerful knowledge hub for the printed circuit board and electronics manufacturing supply chain.
The digital library of books provides a comprehensive repository of expertise from leading industry professionals. Currently, more than 40 titles are available, with new additions being made regularly, making this collection the gold standard for both seasoned experts and newcomers alike.
What makes this library unique is its focus.

Each publication undergoes a rigorous peer review process, ensuring the information is accurate, credible, and valuable to readers.
The program has grown into a robust library as a result of overwhelming industry interest. Subject matter experts from such companies as Siemens, American Standard Circuits, Koh Young, and Polar Instruments have recognized the value of sharing their expertise while positioning themselves as thought leaders, making this initiative highly successful.
