Posting publications is an important part of ones profile and we realize that the style can vary based on publication and citation style. This page serves as a guide to ensure your publications are posted in a consistent and accessible way on your faculty or staff profile.

Style guide

The Wayne State University style guide states that titles of works are not underlined on the web, articles or books are in quotation marks, and titles of entire works are italicized. We have provided some examples with notes of various ways to publish your materials that adhere to the style guide and meet accessibility standards and encourage you to share amongst your school, college, or department.

Note: if there are many authors to a publication, the faculty or staff member may choose to bold their name. This is fine for a sighted user, but a screen reader will not read this any differently to a non-sighted user.
