There are short, readable monographs by Terry Crowley and by Claire Bowern, the excellent collection of chapters
in Ratliff & Newman ('Linguistic Fieldwork'), and most recently the OUP publication edited by Nick Thieberger, which emphasises the interdisciplinary nature of linguistic fieldwork. Finally, though it doesn't bear the title 'fieldwork', the collection of chapters
on language documentation in Gippert, Himmelmann and Mosel (2006) remains an excellent source.</span></span></font></p>

A Guide to Linguistic Fieldwork” is the best known text and had not been replaced as of 2006. I was wondering if anything has been published since and what is most commonly used these days?</span></font></p>
