Subject:QUESTION: Where to find books From:Beverly Parks <bparks -at- HUACHUCA-EMH1 -dot- ARMY -dot- MIL> Date:Wed, 15 Mar 1995 11:25:24 MST

The following question has absolutely nothing to do with job
search alternatives or Laurie's post; Laurie's comment simply
reminded me of something I'd been meaning to ask:
There was a thread a while back about good reference books
on technical writing. I jotted down several titles and went
looking for them in book stores. I couldn't find a single one
(not only the ones on my list, but *no* books specifically on
technical writing!).
Where are they? I was checking the "Writing" section. Maybe I
should be looking in a different section?
Any suggestions welcome. Thanks.
