In e-mail promoting SI to editors in the USA, the *availability* of NIST SP 330 and of SP 811 from the Internet is worthy of recommendation.


Thanks for the suggestion,

I have sent my newspaper contact person those references and also a reference to LC 1137, "Metric Style Guide", a brief summary of the main "style" considerations.

I also took this opportunity to look up these publications on the internet for myself and to download them, since they are the 2008 versions. (My old copies are from 1991 and 1995.)

The web site for these publications is:

if anyone else is interested in downloading copies.
