A Special Message From TAA President Laura Frost

If your life as an academic is anything like mine, in the past month your world turned up-side down. What I thought I knew about teaching and research has necessarily changed as new tools are implemented to finish Laura Frost out the semester remotely. As we get crash courses in Zoom and Microsoft Teams and features of our Learning Management System that we previously ignored, I find myself clinging to the one thing that makes everything worth it. Relationships. You are a necessary member of your community, institution, and family. Keeping each other's spirits up is the best thing we can do for our students, colleagues, and families during this time.

I wish everyone the best of health during these times. If TAA can assist you in any way through its resources, please don't hesitate to contact me or one of our TAA staff.

Sincerely,

Laura Frost, Ph.D.
President, Textbook & Academic Authors Association
