The Subjects series is arranged alphabetically by publication type or title. Publications for the public include printings of advertising rates, annual reports, biographies, teacher resources, marketing studies, news services, and news story indexes. In-house publications cover employee handbooks, market studies, compensation and pension plans, labor relations literature, telephone directories, and various staff newsletters (house organs). Some publications relate to Times affiliate companies, such as the Information Bank, Index, and various printing facilities. Series II consists of the house organ Times Talk (1947-2004), The Times' staff-interests magazine. This series is ordered chronologically.</p>"}

The series is arranged alphabetically by publication type or title. Publications for staff members include newsletters, called “house organs,” such as “Confidential Report,” “Management Newsletter,” and “PC Newsletter.” Of note is the complete run of \"Winners and Sinners,\" the Theodore Bernstein-created newsletter that pointed out published examples of poor and exemplary copy editing. Market research studies are another notable part of the series. These reports were created for Times executives and department heads to help guide decisions regarding layout, advertising rates, and the content of the paper. Pamphlets aimed at the public include listings of advertising rates, annual reports, publications celebrating company milestone anniversaries, biographies of Times executives, teacher and teaching resources, and indexes to Times news stories.</p></div></li><li><div class='series-title'><a href='/mss/17803#c760758'>Series II: Times Talk</a></div>\n<div class='series-description'><p>Times Talk is an in-house publication for the employees of The New York Times that ran from 1947 until at least 2004.
