The Guide is.....

 

.....a supplement to the standard-issue 'Starfleet Basic Survival Manual' (publication for non-Starfleet personnel awaited) that is received by all Starfleet personnel during basic training at Starfleet Academy, and made freely available to all active Starfleet personnel by the Starfleet Bureau of Information.

The compulsory curriculum at Starfleet Academy includes survival classes. Many of those on USS Voyager may have been taught by Commander Zakarian who taught a survival course at Starfleet Academy; Zakarian had a number of allergies, which earned him the nickname "Sneezy" or "Old Sneezy" [#1 and #2 Caretaker]. Tuvok comments in [#66 Displaced] that he found survival training to be less of a challenge because once for four months he survived in the Vulcan desert with only a ritual blade. Paris explains to Neelix in [#23 Parturition]: "Oh there was a whole course at the Academy full of all sorts of survival strategies." His course that year was taught by his father Admiral Owen Paris who marked him B minus.
