History

Nelson Poynter, former journalist and owner of the St. Petersburg Times, and his wife Henrietta, founded Congressional Quarterly in 1945. Poynter's vision for Congressional Quarterly was to make transparent the happenings within the government and Washington, DC. Poynter established the Modern Media Institute, now known as the Poynter Institute, with the mission of promoting democracy through education to journalists and other media leaders. After Poynter's death in 1978, the Institute received controlling stock of the St. Petersburg Times and ownership of CQ.

In May 2008, CQ Press was purchased from Congressional Quarterly by SAGE Publications in its entirety.[1] SAGE is an international publisher of journals, books, and electronic media for academic, educational, and professional markets. A privately owned corporation, SAGE has offices in Los Angeles, London, New Delhi, and Singapore, in addition to the CQ Press office in Washington, DC.

Awards

CQ Researcher, a print and online periodical covering social and political issues, won the ABA Silver Gavel Award in 2002 for its series on liberty and justice.[2]

Each directory in the series features multiple print editions throughout the year and is complemented with Web-based daily updates.

Directories

CQ Press published directories with contact information for the federal government for over fifty years. The directories were commonly known around the Nation's capital as “Red Books”, because of their red covers. In 2012, Leadership Directories, Inc.
