We talk about a lot of books and sites on this blog. I’ve collected here the resources I use most often or talk about on The Writing Resource.

Style Guides
Many style guides also have online versions, which may require a paid membership to use. Chicago, for example, charges to access the guide online. However, you can search the online index for location and go to the information in your hard copy. You can also often search a Q & A (or Ask the Editor) and submit questions yourself. Very handy.
