  Does anyone know of a good reference book for writing training   manuals?
I am new to this type of document, and some book titles   would help me get
started.

I'm posting with permission this message from the training and development
list.  None of them may deal specifically with writing a "training manual,"
but they'd provide a pretty good background on training issues.

I'd suggest contacting ASTD (American Society for Training and
Development), which has an extensive set of publications and resources on
all aspects of training:  www.astd.org
