Summary
The fourth edition of the AGLC refines the enduring foundations laid down by the previous editions of the AGLC and builds upon the existing rules to ensure the ongoing relevance of the AGLC in today's ever-changing legal landscape. AGLC4 adds clarity to rules and includes more examples to address frequently asked citation queries. Several of the existing rules have been consolidated into general rules that apply for numerous source types, to streamline the citation process and improve consistency. A new introductory chapter for secondary sources has been created to list general rules that pertain to all secondary sources. Finally, several new rules have been added to address source types that were not previously covered by the AGLC.
