abstract = "The promise of single sourcing is a streamlined writing process coupled with increased documentation control and range from single, shared files. Aside from technological changes, which are becoming well known, single sourcing impacts the writers job in significant ways, often
making it more complex and demanding new skills not typically thought of as technical writing proficiencies. This article uses a workplace example of complex single sourcing to describe the challenges writers may encounter and the skill sets they will have to develop. It cautions against single
sourcing as an elegant solution to documentation requirements, reminding that new skill development and problem-solving challenges are inherent in its implementation.",
