Locating NAICS Codes

The NAICS code (North American Industry Classification code) is the code used by the government to classify similar businesses together.  This code can also be very useful for gathering information about a particular industry.

There are two ways you can locate the NAICS code for your industry. One way is to consult the NAICS Manual which is kept behind the information desk on 1st floor, Jones Library. The call number for the manual is Jones Info Desk HF1042 .N677x 1997. This manual contains an alphabetically listing of various industry activities and services.  By using the manual, you can check the listing for the activit(ies) or service(s) that your business or industry provides.  Along with descriptive information, you will find the NAICS code associated with that industry.  The second way to locate your NAICS code is by going to the Census homepage at the address below.

Here you will find the search box where you can search by keyword to locate the NAICS code for your industry.

  • U.S. Census - NAICS
    NAICS Information and code searching
  • Logistics World
    Scroll down the left-hand side to "Reference Library". Once on this page, select NAICS and SIC codes. Here you can browse by category, search by code or keyword or use the conversion tool to move between NAICS and SIC codes.
