Good Place To Start:

There are a lot of turnovers in the publishing business and therefore it is unwise to trust this book to be completely accurate. It just takes too long for it to go from research to the book store shelf for all the entries to correct. However, it is still a great place to start your search for a publisher of your creative work. Another great place is the BOOK STORE. Find the books you like, flip them over, write down the publisher, and look them up online.
