ISO (International Standards Organization) Draft for Electronic Citations
The ISO is an international group that develops international standards for the presentation, identification, and description of documents. The organization's final draft (ISO 690-2:1997) of standards for electronic citations can be ordered online from the ISO catalogue at <www.iso.ch/infoe/guide.html>. The draft gives examples of reference styles for entire documents, electronic monographs, databases, and computer programs. It also lists examples of electronic citations for journal articles, personal e-mail communications, and listserv communications.
Print Style Manuals for Electronic Citation
The journal you are writing for can usually provide you with a model for formatting electronic references that you refer to in your article. Several hardcopy reference works can also give guidance. The most important of these are Electronic Styles: A Handbook for Citing Electronic Information (Revised edition, 1996) by Xia Li and Nancy Crane, the 14th Edition of The Chicago Manual of Style (1993), and the 6th Edition of Scientific Style and Format (1993) by the Council of Biology Editors.
