If there are numerous symbols, abbreviations, and acronyms in a report (more than five that are not readily recognized as standard in the field), or if there is a chance that readers will not understand them, a report requires a list of all symbols, abbreviations, and acronyms with an explanation of each. The list of symbols, abbreviations, and acronyms begins on a new page in print publications. (See also 6.9, Symbols, Abbreviations, and Acronyms.) Some


organizations may include this section as part of the front matter to ensure that the reader is quickly aware of its existence.
