Excerpt from Style Book: A Compilation of Rules Governing the Style Used in Setting the Publications of the H. W. Wilson Company

It is not to be expected that this Style Book will be free from errors and omissions. Doubtless many points will arise from time to time which have not been covered and which will need to be defined and set down for future editions. It has not been possible to include many specific examples of usages decided upon. For this reason every left-hand page has been left blank for corrections and additions.

A brief section on Alphabeting has been included in the new edition of this style book. In the main the Rules for Filing Cards prepared by the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh will be used as a guide, and this section serves principally to call attention to the deviations to be made from the Pittsburgh rules.

Where special rules of style exist in typewritten form for a particular publication or groups of publications, such as the Public Affairs Information Service, or the Handbook Series, they have not been incorporated in this style book. Copies of these special rules may be consulted if occasion arises, on application to the editors in charge of these publications.
