Basics of the Reference Page

What do you need to include?

Author name

Publication date

Source titleWhere you found it

1827Slide12

Authors

Author’s name should appear as Last Name, First Initial. Middle Initial.

Example:

Salinger, J. D.If there’s no author put the title of the work before the publication date. Example: Merriam-Webster's collegiate dictionary. (1993). Springfield, MA: Merriam-Webster.Slide13

Authors (con’t

)

Multiple authors? Use the & symbol.

Two authors:

Geisel, T. S., & Lewis, S.Three to seven authors:Salinger, J. D., Geisel, T. S., & Lewis, S. , &More than seven authors:Dickens, C., Salinger, J. D., Dickinson, E., Geisel, T. S., Lewis, S., Stoker, B.,...Stowe, H. B.This is different from the in-text citation rule for the same source (Dickens et al.)Slide14

Titles in References

Notes on formatting:

Italicize titles of

whole

works (books, journals, CDs, etc.).Do not italicize or use quotation marks on titles of parts of works (chapters, articles, songs, etc.).Only capitalize the first word and proper nouns.EXCEPTION: Journal titles are capitalized “normally,” i.e. in title case.Book: Hard times.Journal: Dickens QuarterlyArticle in Journal: Green cheese. Canadian Architect.Slide15

Books

Middle Initial., & Author Last Name, First Initial. Middle initial. (Publication year). Book title. Publication City, State Abbreviation: Publisher.Slide16

DOI or URL?

With online periodical sources, APA requires inclusion of one of two pieces of information.

DOI

: A digital object identifier is assigned to a specific article and can usually be found on the first page of that article. It may also be in the article’s record in the database/webpage where the article was found.

Example: doi:10.1016/j.maturitas.2011.05.011URL: If there is no DOI, use the uniform resource locator for the periodical homepage, NOT the article webpage, database webpage, or article in the database. You can usually do an Internet search for the title of the journal plus the publisher name (if known) to find the journal homepage.Some databases, like those from EBSCOhost, provide this information or a link to the publisher. Example: http://www.journals.elsevier.com/maturitas/Slide17

JOURNAL ARTICLE:

two to seven authors; no DOI; paginated by issue; print
