The Post-Pandemic Writing Center is a collection of ten chapters that document writing center life during the COVID-19 pandemic and convey the sustainable innovations and insights spawned by the pandemic. Written by administrators and tutors, both graduate and undergraduate, these essays speak to a very unique moment in writing center history even as they offer forward-looking practices and pedagogies for writing center work. Because this collection is published digitally, authors have freely shared their scholarship through videos, colorful graphics, pictures, teaching materials, and podcasts to deepen meaning and engage readers.
