What's to say that with permission, your manager
cannot give a manual back for your portfolio after
you've turned it in?
"Dear Ms. Bosslady:
Enclosed are all manuals and documentation produced
during my tenure at X Company, Inc.
With your permission, may I retain a copy of "XX Users
Guide" for purposes of my employment portfolio? I
agree that the manual will be used for the sole
purpose of portfolio presentation and under no
circumstances will the document be copied or
distributed and it will not left with any prospective
client without supervision."
