Judy Vorfeld

When using the fol­low­ing in arti­cles or cor­re­spon­dence, here are some gen­eral rules:

• PAINTINGS, STATUES, DRAWINGS, ETC are italicized.
• NAMES OF WORKS OF ANTIQUITY not usu­ally italicized.
• PHOTO TITLES: use quotations.
• CARTOON TITLES: if they are reg­u­larly appear­ing, are italicized.
• TITLES OF FAIRS/EXHIBITIONS not italicized.
• CATALOG TITLES are italicized.
• OPERAS, ORATORIOS, TONE POEMS, ETC. are italicized.
• TITLES OF MOVIES/TV/RADIO PROGRAMS ital­i­cized. Single episode use quotations.
• POEM TITLES most use quo­ta­tions. A very long poetic work is ital­i­cized & no quotes used.
• SONG TITLES use quo­ta­tions, as with poems
