The Official W.E.I.R.D. Book of The Residents is a book by W.E.I.R.D. (We Endorse Immediate Residents Deification), the official fan club of The Residents from 1978 to 1981. The first published book about the group, it was compiled in collaboration with The Residents' management company The Cryptic Corporation, and was designed, compiled and edited by the club's co-founders Philip Culp and Mimi King.

The book was released in 1979, with a red and black cover illustrated by Gary Panter, in a limited run of 500 copies. A second edition was released in 1981, now in a run of 750 copies, featuring the same cover art but in yellow and black.

The Residents are an American art collective and art rock band best known for their avant-garde music and multimedia works. Since their first official release, Meet the Residents (1974), they have released over 60 albums, numerous music videos and short films, three CD-ROM projects, and ten DVDs over the course of over half a century. They have undertaken seven major world tours and scored multiple films. Pioneers in exploring the potential of CD-ROM and similar technologies, the Residents have won several awards for their multimedia projects. They founded Ralph Records, a record label focusing on avant-garde music, in 1972.
