Format for series titles #9

Closed LornaLynch closed 5 years ago

With regard to formatting of series titles (esp the Essentials books): I have checked the Oxford Guide, which states that series titles should be set in Roman type without quotation marks. Fictional series should be set in italics or set within quotation marks. I think it would be helpful to state our preferred format in the style guide, if we are going to diverge from the OSG.

Er, don't we already do that in the 'Titles of other works' section?

A note for series titles would be helpful, though, unless "The MagPi Essentials" is actually part of the book title. The book title is, for example, Learn to Code with C, which is volume 8 of Raspberry Pi's The MagPi Essentials series.
