TAA was established
in 1987 as the Textbook Authors Association.
The association
was for people interested in developing and publishing all kinds
of educational materials, including textbooks, software, videos,
monographs, reference books, newsletters, multimedia CD-ROM disks
and others.
TAA changed
its name to Text and Academic Authors in 1993 to reflect the membership's
interest in issues involving academic journals and other academic
writing.
In these roles,
TAA represents text and academic authors in matters involving
them, including taxes, copyright and better appreciation of their
work within academe.
Not secondarily,
the association is committed to improving the quality of educational
materials.
