MAILING LISTS & LABELS

The Minnesota Department of Education does not generate mailing lists or labels. These can be acquired in one of two ways.

1. For generic mailing lists or labels for districts or schools, you can download the appropriate raw data file below and using a database application, generate your own list or labels.
   
2. The Minnesota Bookstore's Mailing List Services specializes in creating mailing labels and lists of all sorts.  They can be reached at 651-296-0930. They do charge a fee for their services.
