Included are some of the nation's leading textbooks on writing, editing, ethics and public relations. Many of these have been translated into multiple languages and are used internationally. Three of the books celebrate the School's recent centennial, and others contribute to mass media scholarship.

The books are but one aspect of the faculty's scholarly and creative work. See related article in this issue that highlights the more than 75 peer-reviewed journal articles written or contributed to by Missouri journalism faculty since 2008.
