Azar, Betty. Understanding and Using English Grammar, Vol. B. 2009.

Although the Azar text is older than the suggested "5 years or newer" standard, it remains a seminal text in this area of study.

Instructors must choose a textbook from the textbook list. If, however, a faculty member would prefer to use a textbook not on the list, they must contact a full-time faculty member who regularly teaches the course to explain how the adoption would serve to achieve the learning outcomes specified in the course outline of record. We encourage the faculty to share new adoptions with colleagues, solicit feedback, and suggest additions to the list of recommended textbooks.
