1 [MLA] Formatting The Works Cited page provides readers information on every work that you cited in your essay. This provides readers the ability to examine your supporting evidence. The Works Cited page will follow a similar format to your essay, being double-spaced with a standard 12-point font. The title of this section of your paper should be titled Works Cited, without quotations or underlining, centered at the top of the page. Entries on your works cited page should be double-spaced, and utilize a hanging indent. To format your Works Cited page with hanging indent in Microsoft Word (2007) click Paragraph Then under Special, select Hanging. Citation Entries Books published by a single author provide the standard on which all other citations are made. Single Author Author Last Name, Author First Name. Title of Work.

New York and London: New York University Press, Entries with multiple authors and/or alternative sources such as electronic databases, multivolume works, edited works, or on-line sources will make additions or subtractions to this entry type based on information available. When viewing the following examples, keep in mind that your source may not have all the required information, especially when selected from an on-line source. However, you should always review your citation entries to ensure that all available information is provided to the reader.

Web. 8 Mar In-Text Citations The in-text citation refers your reader to the correct reference listed in your Works Cited. MLA style requires the author's last name and page number(s) of the reference to appear in parentheses immediately before the period at the end of the sentence in which referenced material is used. This can be done in one of two ways. 1. If the author's name is included in the sentence you may remove the author's name from the citation, and only include a page number. Edward Ziter argues that "the pleasure of the theatrical harem (at least for the male audience) was the opportunity to imagine white European women assuming the position of the compliant and sensual Eastern woman" (75). 2. If the author's name is not included in the sentence, you will need to provide the author's name and the page number in your citation. Estimates of South Carolina slave imports indicate that Gullah predecessors were primarily from West and Central Africa. From , slavery imports reflect that 39% of slaves were from Angola, 20% from Senegambia, 17% from the Windward Coast, and 13% from the Gold Coast (Pollitzer 43).

4 [APA] American Psychological Association (APA) style is most frequently used in the social and behavioral sciences where emphasis is placed on date of the scholarship. APA style utilizes intext citations and a References page. The Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 6th edition is the most recent guide published for APA style. There are two components to properly citing sources: 1. References page 2. In-text citation Formatting The References page provides readers information on every work that you cited in your essay. This provides readers the ability to examine your supporting evidence. The References page will follow a similar format to your essay, being double-spaced with a standard 12-point font. The title of this section of your paper should be titled References, without quotations or underlining, centered at the top of the page. Entries on your References page should be double-spaced, and utilize a hanging indent. To format your References page with hanging indent in Microsoft Word (2007) click Paragraph Then under Special, select Hanging.

5 Citation Entries Books and journals published by a single author provide the standard on which all other citations are made.

Roeper Review, 20, 4-8. Retrieved from In-Text Citations The in-text citation refers your reader to the correct reference listed in your References page. APA style has different formats depending on whether or not you include the author's name in the text of your sentence, and if you are referencing part of the source, or the full source. Every citation will include the author's name and year of publication. There are two ways to format a full-source citation depending on whether or not you include the author's name in the sentence. 1. If the author's name is included in the sentence you may remove the author's name from the citation, and only include the year of publication. Burke (1997) determined that If the author's name is not included in the sentence, you will need to provide the author's name and the page number in your citation. In one such study (Burke, 2003)... If you are citing part of a source, such as a quotation, page numbers will need to be included in your citation. Once again, depending on whether or not you include the author's name in the sentence will determine the format of your citation. 1. If the author's name is included in the sentence, the year of publication will immediately follow the author's name in parentheses. However, your sentence will also include the page number(s) in a second set of parentheses immediately prior to the period at the end of the sentence. Philip Thomas (1997) attempts to dispel this notion that "psychiatry, like medicine, [is] an area of knowledge unsullied by the complications of society and politics" (p. 4).

8 2. If the author's name is not included in the sentence, author's name, year of publication, and page number(s) will all appear immediately prior to the period of the sentence in parentheses. One important study has examined the genetic issues involved in schizophrenia, indicating that there might be a marker for schizophrenia on chromosome 5 (Sherrington et al., 1989, p. 65).

9 [CHICAGO] The Chicago Manual of Style (CMoS) is most frequently used in the humanities and social sciences where emphasis is placed on authorship and date of the scholarship. Chicago can utilize in-text citations or Footnotes / Notes Page. In addition to a Notes page, a Bibliography may also be used. The Chicago Manual of Style, 14th edition is the most recent guide published. Students may also benefit from the A Manual for Writers of Term Papers, Theses, and Disserations, 6th edition, more commonly referred to as Turabian. This guide will provide information on formatting: 1. Footnotes / Notes Page (end-notes) 3. Bibliography Formatting The Bibliography page provides readers information on every work that you read or consulted in preparation for preparing your essay. Works listed on your bibliography do not have to be referenced in your final essay to be included. The Bibliography page will follow a similar format to your essay, being double-spaced with a standard 12-point font. The title of this section of your paper should be titled Bibliography, without quotations or underlining, centered at the top of the page. Entries on your References page should be double-spaced, and utilize a hanging indent. To format your References page with hanging indent in Microsoft Word (2007) click Paragraph Then under Special, select Hanging.

10 Some specialities, such as history, divide the Bibliography based on type of source, such as primary sources and secondary sources. For more information on formatting sections within a bibliography, see.. Citation Entries Books published by a single author provide the standard on which all other citations are made. Single Author Author Last Name, Author First Name. Title of Work. City: Publisher, Date of Publication. Takaki, Ronald. A Different Mirror: A History of Multicultural America. Boston: Little,

When viewing the following examples, keep in mind that your source may not have all the required information, especially when selected from an on-line source. However, you should always review your citation entries to ensure that all available information is provided to the reader.

American Journal of Sociology 115 (2009): Accessed February 28, doi: / A DOI is a Digital Object Identifier. Not all websites/databases utilize DOI. Any permanent link is sufficient. Footnotes / Notes Page (End-Notes) Unlike in-text citations, footnotes provide readers the citation information on the same page as where the reference appears. Readers are referred to citation information by a superscript number 1 which correlates with a note at the bottom of the page. This number follows the period of the sentence in which the reference occurs. The note will include citation information that directs readers to the source. Papers utilizing footnotes are usually coupled with a bibliography. The Notes page, commonly referred to as end-notes, is formatted in the same manner as footnotes. Instead of the note appearing at the bottom of the page, a listing of all notes is compiled at the end of the paper, appearing in numbered format. A superscript number in the text refers readers to the appropriate note. Papers with Notes pages may or may not include a bibliography. Since Footnotes provide the same information as the citation found on a bibliography page, they have very similar formatting. Entries will begin with the author's full name, first name followed by last name. Items with the entry are separated with commas instead of periods throughout. Finally, the publishing information is enclosed in parentheses. Sentence with reference.¹ 1 Author First Name Author Last Name, Title of Work, (City: Publisher, Date), Page Number(s). In order to enter footnotes with Microsoft Word go to the References tab

13 With the cursor following the period of the sentence containing your reference, click Insert Footnote Microsoft Word will automatically insert the superscript number in the text, and begin a footnote. In addition, entries will be numbered sequentially automatically. If you need a Notes page (end-notes) instead of footnotes, click Insert Endnote instead.
