[APG Public List] [TGF] [APG Members] Source Citation study groupcommencinc soon

[Jacqueline Wilson]

Elizabeth, I once heard a professor who teaches an editing class using  
CMOS as "the death march through The Chicago Manual of Style" - I  
declined to take the class as I had already done the same thing  
through the University of Chicago's publishing program.

I thought once was enough - and here I am again just a glutton for  
punishment!  LOL  but I think that the CMOS discussion should wait for  
the new edition this fall.

All the best

I trust that the editors of those journals will also be called in to
participate in discussions of their requirements?
