Alright guys, in the Netherlands it's common for companies to 'contribute to science' by publishing a scientific album of their field of specialty.

I'm using these books for my thesis, but I don't know if this is a common practise in other countries in the West as well. Does anyone over here knows anything about it?

I DID NOT KNOW REGARDING THAT.

EXPLAIN IT.

Every 25th anniversary of a company is celebrated with a sort of memorial which describes the hardships, profits and decisions made by the company. It's basically a way to look back at the past 25 years and reflect on their actions.
It's pretty cool because you can see which people were the true visionairs of the company, and which decisions and strategies turned out to be the keys to succes.

Don't be tough on Rei, he's got autism. You'll get used to it, just don't pay him too much attention.

Well, for one he has a trip. You can think of a trip as being a big stamp on one's forehead that reads "I'M A BIG SMELLY RETARD"

It's a book, usually. In dutch it's called a 'gedenkboek', when I googled it, it gave 'album' as a translation.
I don't know the origins of the custom, but I like it.

There's no way it's that simple.
