Meet the LetsTalkLibrary
The LetsTalkLibrary is a source for online readings to accompany Let’s Talk: A Pocket Rhetoric, by Andrea Lunsford. Curated by Michal Brody, the site includes essays, videos, cartoons, speeches, and much more that will get students reading, listening, talking, and writing on issues they care about. Selections are searchable by genre, theme, and medium, and the library will be updated twice a year, adding selections on up-to-the-minute issues just in time for course planning. Each selection includes questions to think about, write about, and talk about—and a space where readers can comment or respond. In short, this is a library without “quiet” signs. Let’s talk!

W. W. Norton & Co.
W. W. Norton & Company has been independent since its founding in 1923, when William Warder Norton and Mary D. Herter Norton first published lectures delivered at the People’s Institute, the adult education division of New York City’s Cooper Union. The firm soon expanded its program beyond the Institute, publishing books by celebrated academics from America and abroad. By midcentury, the two major pillars of Norton’s publishing program—trade books and college texts—were firmly established. In the 1950s, the Norton family transferred control of the company to its employees, and today—with a staff of five hundred and and hundreds of trade, college, and professional titles published each year—W. W. Norton & Company stands as the largest and oldest publishing house owned wholly by its employees.
