Nonprofit organizations information resource

Island Press is the only nonprofit organization in the United States whose principal purpose is the publication of books on environmental issues and natural resource management. We provide solutions-oriented information to professionals, public officials, business and community leaders, and concerned citizens who are shaping responses to environmental problems. 

One other clue that can provide some information about the source of a website is its uniform resource locator (URL), or web address. Education-related URLs end in .edu , whereas commercial sites usually contain .com in the URL. The URLs of nonprofit organizations usually end in .org , and government and military organizations end with .gov and .mil , respectively. Despite these guidelines, it is important to note that anyone can register a. com,. org or. net website for any use (including personal).
