From the Editor: Thinking About Tomorrow

When I ponder the future of in-plants, I generally see it through the eyes of the forward-thinking managers I've met—the ones constantly adding services and contemplating new ways to help their customers.

One of those managers is Tony Seaman, director of Printing and Graphic Services at the University of Mississippi, and president of the In-Plant Printing and Mailing Association. When I learned Tony was retiring on January 31, I was determined to speak with him before he left, to get his observations on the future of the industry he has worked in since apprenticing as a camera operator in 1961.
