The first thing to look for is the comparison.
We need to compare curators with the writers.

Eliminate options B and D

A) curators, unlike textbook writers, are limited to the works they
Correct as is

C) curators are limited to the availability of works, unlike textbook writers, that they
They is ambiguous

E) curators are limited to the works, which they, unlike textbook writers,
changes the meaning of the sentence.
