AP Stylebook Online offers multiple-user site licenses,
such as 25 users and 50 users. What do those user numbers mean?
AP Stylebook Online rates are based on individual named users. That means each user gets his or her own user name and password. These rates are based on the number of total users, or seats, not the number of simultaneous users at any time.
What are the features of the AP Stylebook Online?
The AP Stylebook Online takes the standard-setting AP Stylebook and adds online functionality. It is searchable and it's updated live as the AP adds or changes its style listings. You can use it from your work computer, your home computer, anyplace you have an Internet connection. If you have multiple users at your organization or business, you can buy a site license and get the ability to share your own local style notes across your organization.
A site tour is available at http://www.apstylebook.com/?do=site_tour to walk you through the features.
How much is the AP Stylebook Online?
Rates are based on the number of users, and the cost per user decreases as you add more users to your site license. Annual subscription rates start at $25 for an individual user, with discounts for AP members and for renewing customers.
I am interested in buying a PDF or HTML version of the Stylebook Online for my intranet? Where can I find those products?
We no longer offer PDF or HTML files of the Stylebook. We hope you will find the Web-based AP Stylebook Online is a better product with more functionality.

Yes. The Associated Press currently offers a Web-based subscription edition that is fully searchable and lets you include your own style examples, notes and entries.

You can send an e-mail to apstylebook@ap.org.
How can I become an AP member?
The Associated Press offers two types of membership, regular and associate. Regular membership is available to printed newspapers published in the United States. Most regular members are daily newspapers. Associate membership is available to daily newspapers, some weekly newspapers and broadcast stations. Both regular and associate members receive AP news and photos, and share costs in and contribute news to the cooperative; regular members agree to contribute news exclusively to the AP. Regular members alone are entitled to vote in elections for the AP Board of Directors.
We are members of the AP. How do I get my SID code to
claim my member discount?
If you have a question about whether your organization is a member of the AP, or you need your SID code to qualify for your member discount, contact your local AP bureau. A list of bureaus and their contact information is available at http://www.ap.org/pages/contact/contact.html
Broadcasters should contact their salesperson to get their AP Billing Account Number. Contact information is available at http://www.apbroadcast.com/AP+Broadcast/Contact+Us/default.htm
