<p class="MsoNormal">I teach Technical Editing at the University of Utah using Cunningham et al.
<i>Technical Editing</i> and <i>The Copyeditor’s Handbook. </i>As others have mentioned,
<i>Technical Editing</i> is a serviceable but expensive text. I have been able to reduce the cost by about half through our campus’s inclusive access program, but I also think it’s a more robust book than is strictly needed for an undergraduate course. I would
love to support/contribute to OER offerings in technical editing. There’s clearly interest and demand!
