University Relations

The UAF editorial style guide now has a Google group for all UA users. This group alerts members to changes to the UAF editorial style guide; members can also discuss and clarify editorial questions related to spelling, punctuation and usage. Visit www.uaf.edu/marketing/standards/style/ to join.

The UAF Style Guide (pdf) is based primarily on the Associated Press Stylebook. First reference for spelling and usage is Webster’s New World College Dictionary, Fourth Edition. Secondary usage is The Chicago Manual of Style, 16th ed. Another useful resource for Alaska-specific questions is the AP Stylebook for Alaska.
