A style guide, or manual, provides direction on all aspects of the writing process, from the ethics of authorship to the word choice that best reduces bias in language.
Many academic disciplines have their own style guide. Some journals even have their own specific style. Ask your professor what style he or she wishes you to use for your paper/project.
These guides offer guidance on choosing the headings, tables, figures, and tone that will result in strong, simple, and elegant communication.
For more information, see the individual tabs for specific styles here, or use the printed style manuals shelved in the library's Research Commons.
