UT Tyler Press publishes first book<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The University of Texas at Tyler on Monday announced the release of its first edition of A Patriot\u2019s Guide to Success: Words of Wisdom from East Texas Leaders<\/em>.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It\u2019s the first book published by the UT Tyler Press. The book offers advice and inspirational stories from a diverse group of about sixty East Texas leaders. It was produced as a companion piece for UT Tyler\u2019s annual Career Success Conference, which brings together business and industry leaders from across the nation, including UT Tyler alumni, to share their success stories.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the things that students talked about most was wanting to have the advice of all of those who came out to speak on a very regular basis, and since we can\u2019t invite 200-plus executives to campus every week to share their stories and success with our students, we decided to publish a book by those very same executives,\u201d Michael Tidwell, UT Tyler president, told KLTV.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Having faculty members who want to publish work based on their field was one of the driving forces behind creating the UT Tyler Press, Tidwell said.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cThere are a lot of individuals on campus already, doctorly-qualified faculty members with PhDs who are experts in their area of discipline and often times they publish books or write journal articles and they have to go to other organizations to publish their works,\u201d he said. \u201cWell, we\u2019ve decided now with our great research focus here at the university to create a press so those books can now be published right here under the UT Tyler Press.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The UT Tyler Press is working on projects from faculty and a couple of people outside the university. \u201cVery soon we\u2019ll go out into the marketplace and to Tyler and all of East Texas and seek works from the broader community,\u201d Tidwell said.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
