Thanks, Maeve, for pointing out Ask the Editor. It’s just one of many online-only features of the AP Stylebook Online.

With Ask the Editor, you not only get to submit questions but you can search past answers — there are more listings in Ask the Editor than in the Stylebook itself.

Plus you get regularly updated company listings from Capital IQ, audio pronouncers on names and terms in the news, and e-mail updates throughout the year whenever AP adds a new listing or changes its guidance on something, as we did going to website from Web site this spring.

I still love my spiral-bound book, but Stylebook Online is a richer resource that can travel with you more easily.

Graham Broadley points out that subscribing to the online AP Style Book carries the advantage of an Ask the Editor feature. The advantages of the ability to ask specific questions of a real live editor are obvious.

Thanks, Graham

Thank you very much for the article. I had long been looking for a list of books that could polish my English and give answers to some questions.

Keep up the amazing work with your blog. I’ve been reading it for months now, and it’s very useful and informative.

Thank you for giving the information about the PDFs.
I downloaded The BBC News Styleguide by way of experiment.
