Style

The Secretary of State maintains the style manual for the Illinois Administrative Code and Illinois Register on its website.{{cite book|title=Illinois Administrative Code and Illinois Register Style Manual|publisher=Illinois Secretary of State|date=June 2004|url=http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/publications/pdf_publications/admin_code_style_manual.pdf}} One notable feature of the Code and Register text is the use of italics (or, in less recently updated sections, all caps) to indicate that a particular set of words is quoting or closely summarizing statutory text; a reference to the relevant section of the Illinois Compiled Statutes should be provided in brackets after the italicized text.
