Standards for Creating Geologic Field Trip Guidebooks

"GSIS encourages guidebook editors and compilers to include specific information on the cover and preliminary

pages of every guidebook so that this important literature can be identified, acquired, and used by the

geoscience community. The following guidelines are intended to ensure that your guidebook contains the

essential components to become an identifiable and permanent part of the geoscience literature." (From the Guidelines for Authors...., 2005)
