	Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

	March 31, 1998

NOTE 1.	The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein
have been prepared by Registrant and include all normal and recurring 
adjustments which are, in the opinion of Management, necessary for a 
fair presentation of the financial position at March 31, 1998, the 
results of operations and the statement of cash flows for the three 
months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 pursuant to the rules and 
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The 
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Auto-
Graphics, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All material 
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

	The results of operations for the subject periods are not 
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

	This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is qualified in its entirety by 
the information included in the Company's Annual Report to the SEC

including, without limitation, the financial statements included therein.


NOTE 2.	The Company entered into a stock repurchase agreement in February

seven year period, 156,000 of 171,000 shares of Company stock owned 
by the individual.  The total transaction cost of $825,000 includes 
stock, non-competition and consulting fees.  In January of 1995,

15,600 shares, and, in January 1998, the Company purchased and 
retired 26,000 shares in accordance with the above referenced agreement.

Item 2.	Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
Results of Operations

FINANCIAL CONDITION

December 31, 1997 to March 31, 1998

	Liquidity and capital resources.  Working capital decreased $328,000. 
Long-term debt was reduced by $325,000.  The decline in accounts receivable
was due to higher fourth quarter revenues of $3.3 million (typically the
Company's highest quarter) to lower first quarter revenues of $2.4 million.
The average collection period for accounts receivable increased from 66 days
at December 31, 1997 to 71 days at March 31, 1998.  Net cash provided by
operations increased approximately $400,000 to $570,000 in the first quarter
of 1998 from $172,000 in the first quarter 1997 due primarily to the
collection of approximately $510,000 in accounts receivable.  Capital
expenditures increased to $352,000 in the first quarter 1998 from $195,000
in the first quarter of 1997 due to the procurement of production equipment
and additional software development costs in the first quarter of 1998.

	The Company has a revolving credit facility with maximum 
availability of $1,250,000 ($1,061,352 at March 31, 1998), secured by
accounts receivable and renewed bi-annually in June.  Management believes
that the current line of credit will again be renewed in June 1999 and is
sufficient to handle the Company's cyclical working capital needs.  The
Company also maintains a capital line of credit facility with a maximum
availability of $3,000,000 ($200,927 available at March 31, 1998) secured
by substantially all of the Company's capital assets which also renews
bi-annually in June and management believes that this credit facility will
again be renewed in June 1999.  Management does not currently believe that
increased credit availability will be required to finance planned capital
expenditures in 1998, which are estimated at $1,000,000, to be used to
upgrade computers, production equipment and for software development.  The
Company obtained a term credit facility of $750,000 to fund the 1997
acquisition of the assets of the Library Information Systems division of ISM
Information Systems Management Manitoba Corporation.  The term note is a three
year note with interest only for 12 months followed by a 24 month amortization
schedule at bank prime rate.  The Company retired $375,000 of the balance
outstanding in term borrowings in January 1998.  The term facility carries an
uncompensated guarantee by an officer/stockholder of the Company.  These
credit facilities carry no commitment fees or compensatory balance
requirements, and require that the Company maintain minimum financial ratio
covenants and prohibits the payment of cash dividends.

	The Company's capital resources may be used to support working 
capital requirements, capital investment and possible acquisitions of 
businesses, products or technologies complementary to the Company's current 
business.  The Company believes that current cash reserves and cash flow from 
operations are sufficient to fund its operations in 1998.  However, during 
this period or thereafter, the Company may require additional financing.  
There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available on 
terms favorable to the Company, or at all.

	The Company entered into a stock repurchase agreement in February 
1995, with a former employee/officer and current director of the Company, 
whereby the Company agreed to purchase and retire, over a seven year period, 
156,000 of 171,000 shares of Company stock owned by the individual.  The total
transaction cost of $825,000 includes stock, non-competition and consulting 
fees. In January of 1995, 1996 and 1997, the Company purchased and retired 
three blocks of 15,600 shares, and, in January 1998, the Company purchased and
retired a fourth block of 26,000 shares in accordance with the above 
referenced agreement.

	In June 1995, the Company entered into a stock repurchase agreement 
with a former director of the Company, whereby the Company agreed to purchase 
and retire, in 1995, 115,000 of 141,000 shares of Company stock owned by the 
stockholder.  The total transaction cost of $230,000 is being paid in four 
annual installments beginning in 1995 plus interest of 5.5% per annum ($65,000 
paid in June 1995, and $55,000 paid in June 1996, 1997 and 1998).

	In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued 
"Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures about 
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information", which is effective for 
annual periods beginning after December 15, 1997 and interim periods beginning
after December 15, 1998.  The statement establishes standards for reporting of 
information about operating segments in interim and annual financial 
statements and therefore will have no material effect on the Company's 
financial position or results of operations.

	In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants 
issued Statement of Opinion ("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of 
Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use".  This SOP is 
effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 
15, 1998.  This SOP provides guidance on accounting for the costs of computer 
software developed or obtained for internal use. The SOP requires that the 
Company capitalize certain costs of software developed for internal use once 
certain criteria are met.  The Company is currently evaluating SOP 98-1, but 
does not expect it will have a material effect on its consolidated financial 
statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

First Quarter 1998 as Compared to First Quarter 1997

        Results for the first quarter of 1998, when compared to the first
quarter of 1997, reflect the consolidated results derived from several
acquisitions consummated in late 1997.  In July, 1997, the Company acquired
the assets of the Library Information Systems division of ISM Information
Systems Management Manitoba Corporation.  In October, 1997, the Company
acquired the remaining 50% share of Datacat, Inc., that it did not already
own.

	Net sales increased $600,000 or 33% from 1997 to $2,394,000 in 1998 
due to additional revenues attributable to the acquisition of A-G Canada, Ltd. 
and Datacat, Inc., and additional sales of the Company's Impact/ONLINE(tm)
product line.  The decline in net sales from the Company's traditional business
lines was more than offset by revenues contributed by the acquisitions.

	Cost of sales increased $460,000 or 47%.  Gross margins decreased 
from 46% in 1997 to 40% in 1998 due to changes in operating costs generally 
attributable to variable costs fluctuating with product mix and sales volume.

	Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $99,000 or 
15% due to the additional sales, marketing and general and administrative 
costs associated with the acquisitions of A-G Canada, Ltd. and Datacat, Inc.. 
As a percentage of sales, these expenses decreased from 38% in 1997 to 32% in 
1998 as the acquisitions provided more revenues without a proportional 
increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.

	Interest expense/other was $95,000 in 1998 up from $56,000 in 1997 
due to additional borrowings associated with acquisitions offset by lower 
interest rates from the new credit facilities.

	Net Income was unchanged at $50,000 in 1998 from 1997.

	Basic earnings per share was unchanged at $0.05 per share in 1998 
from 1997.
