Edited volumes in bibliography: (eds) or (eds.)? I was recently informed that (eds) NOT (eds.) was the 'correct' way (i.e not simply down to journal style guidelines) to describe volumes with multiple editors. Conversely, according to this same source, (ed.) should be used rather than (ed). Surely both (ed.) and (eds.) are abbreviations and therefore both require the full stop to indicate this?
APA 6th edition uses "Eds." So there's at least one reputed style guide that abbreviates in the plural with a fullstop.
