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 don't know, but here are some leads for tracking down that sort of
group coverage:
Check out the National Writers Union, call the office. They have
libel insurance (or used to), and may know of an organization that
has E&O (errors & omissions, isn't it?) insurance for members. And
call the STC office also for a similar referral.
And ask other professional organizations, especially those for
consultants. Also your local small business development office (look
up on SBA.gov) might be able to point you in the right
direction. And ask any consultant-type people you know who might
need E&O insurance. Local chamber of commerce.
I googled on "association" +"errors and omissions" +technical and
found
http://www.aig.com/Association-Professional-Liability_20_6088.html
which seems to be a company that provides insurance for associations
- perhaps they could point you to one of their client associations
that offers liability/E&O insurance to members.
Good luck - and let us know what you find, if you don't mind!
