"Book Notes Note that a place of publication is no longer required in book citations (see CMOS 14.30). 1. Charles Yu, Interior Chinatown (Pantheon Books, 2020), 45. 2. Amy J. Binder and Jeffrey L. Kidder, The Channels of Student Activism: How the Left and Right Are Winning (and Losing) in Campus Politics Today (University of Chicago Press, 2022), 117–18."

Chicago style no longer requires place of publication in citations. Authors: If you put these in your citations, a copyeditor needs to take them out manually, so if you read this, please be a champ and skip them the first time around.

Curious: who initiated the conversation about updating their style guide to #CMOS18, you or your client?

I just discovered another departure from the 17th edition #ChicagoManualOfStyle. Scholastic Grades! I'm glad this didn't come up for me after the 18th came out. Here's an example:

#CMOS17: I mostly got Cs and Bs in high school.

#CMOS18: In college, I got mostly A's.

True facts. #AmEditing 🎓

Is the Chicago Manual of Style a sacred text? In which I'm weird about a style guide

In which I read #CMOS from cover to cover, love some changes in #CMOS18 and hate others—and John Green fights tuberculosis armed with the mighty em dash:

#Copyeditors: Just a general suggestion to check in with your publisher clients about #CMOS18! Some publishers are taking longer to move over to 18; some aren't adopting all of the changes. Decisions on the publisher's end take time; don't make assumptions and move to 18 w/o checking.

Screenshot with "The Chicago Manual of Style" in black on yellow, with "Online" in red beneath it. To the right of this block of color is an entry: 5: Grammar and Usage > 5.255: Making Conscious Choices. The footnote reads, "Here we draw on the term 'conscious language' as used by Karen Yin, founder of the Conscious Style Guide website (see bibliog. 1.4)."

I was not expecting this footnote in the new Chicago Manual of Style. Thank you, editors of #CMOS18, for modeling #ConsciousLanguage.

A new #CMOS18 means lots of links to update in courses, and some new takes to learn about copyediting choices and publishing "best practices." Here's a summary of changes to get you started with this big update!
