Resources and Scholarship

Our readings, writings, and professional conversations about outreach enable us to reflect, learn from the work of others, connect with other writing center communities, and contribute to the larger conversations about theory, advocacy, and best practices. The following resources consist of selected scholarly readings that inform our practices, our conference presentations, and our published works.
