The AP Stylebook is the ultimate resource when it comes to AP style. You can purchase it in several forms through the AP Stylebook website.

The iOS version for .99 (in the App Store).

Libraries and universities with journalism programs may also have group subscriptions that you can use if you are a member or student.
