In Academic Writing we have transitioned from using MLA style to APA. This is the newest version of the textbook that will be used in all of the Academic Writing classes: Academic Writing Textbook.
The book will not be printed for students so there is nothing for them to purchase. They should use the PDF of the textbook.
