About this free online technical writing textbook

We extend our sincere appreciation to Dr. McMurrey, the team of consultants at Saylor University whose work shared via open educational resources is also featured in this text, and the host of educators, librarians, and professionals who have shared their creations with a Creative Commons license. Our thanks as well to our colleague, Dr. Eleanor Sumpter-Latham, whose work we consulted and adapted into this text.
