Are you gluing wood, metal, or all kinds of things? There is a PDF of a
recent (2005), 66-page paper on gluing wood from the Forest Products
Laboratory that covers everything most people would want to know:

As for metal, I wrote a 12-page article on the subject for _American
Machinist_, but that was 30 years ago and it's hopelessly out-of-date. There
have been many developments since then. Your best source is the engineers at
the major companies -- 3M, Dow, etc. I've had good luck over the years just
calling those companies and asking to speak to a technical expert on the
subject. They're usually glad to help.

Good luck.
