TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.

I arrange my books according to the Chicago Manual of Style. The very first
section of that book is called "Parts of a Book," and it has a list of every
conceivable kind of book section and the order in which it's supposed to
appear. Appendices come before the glossary.
