Working on a paper? Writing for a blog like EditorNinja’s? Maybe you have a large dissertation or thesis due. Chances are, you’ve been told to adhere to a specific style guide, like AP or MLA.

What is a style guide? A style guide tells writers how to cite their sources, format their pieces, and so much more.

According to the Purdue Online Writing Lab (OWL), style guides

“include a wide range of rules and guidelines for works in their respective fields, from grammar and language use to the font and size of headings in a work. Generally, style manuals include everything a writer needs to know in order to make their work look and read just like every other work written in that style — the look of the page, the way other authors are referenced in the body of the work, and even the tone of the writing.”

In general, your field of study will determine which style guide you use, but your educational program, business, publisher, or teacher has the final say.
