TAA Partnership Program
With TAA’s new Partnership Program, you gain access to your target audience of textbook and/or academic authors through major event programming year-round, ensuring maximum recognition and engagement with the TAA community.

TAA provides professional development resources, events, and networking opportunities for textbook authors and authors of scholarly journal articles and books. Established in 1987, TAA is the only national, nonprofit membership association dedicated solely to assisting textbook and academic authors.
TAA has 2,000+ members and growing, with a mix of aspiring and published textbook and academic authors in a variety of writing disciplines, the majority of whom are faculty at U.S. colleges and universities. We also have a solid group of industry professionals (attorneys, accountants, editors, publishers, coaches, indexers).
TAA Conference
TAA's 2023 Textbook & Academic Authoring Conference will be held online June 9-10. Attendees of this virtual event will have the opportunity to participate in almost two dozen educational sessions, one-on-one mentoring sessions with veteran textbook and academic authors and industry professionals, and plenty of networking and information-sharing sessions.
The interactive virtual platform we’ll be using to deliver the virtual conference will “virtually” make it feel like we are meeting in person (or as close as we can get to it). The platform offers some unique ways to showcase our partners as well. Take an “inside look” at what attendees will experience.
