Last fall the American Anthropological Association announced that it would retire its style guide.
According to an announcement on the AAA website, “After much consideration of publishing standards and member input, AAA has decided to cease production of the AAA Style Guide. AAA style now adheres fully to the current edition of the Chicago Manual of Style (Author-Date).”
The change should not lead to any major difficulty, since the last 2009 edition of the AAA Style Guide was largely based on the Chicago Manual of Style .
The Chicago Manual of Style can be accessed online in its entirety, while a print copy is held on reserve at the Circulation Desk, (Call number Z253 U69 2010).
