The References



Every reference you use in your research paper has to be cited twice

1- In-text
2- In the reference list.

1- Cite last names only.
2- Cite the date of publication.
3- Cite the page number with direct quotation, but not with a paraphrase

4- If your direct quotation is more than 40 words long, indent it.

5- If the work has more than one author, use and in the text and an ampersand (&) in the citation.

6- When a work has no author, use the first two or three words of the work's title as your text reference, capitalizing each word.


For The reference list

Place the title in quotation  if it refers to an article, chapter of a book, or Web page. Italicize the title if it refers to a book, periodical, brochure, or report


Order: Entries should be arranged in alphabetical order by authors' last names. Sources without authors are arranged alphabetically by title within the same list.
Authors: Write out the last name and initials for all authors of a particular work. Use an ampersand (&) instead of the word "and" when listing multiple authors of a single work. e.g. Smith, J. D., & Jones, M.
Titles: Capitalize only the first word of a title or subtitle, and any proper names that are part of a title.
Pagination: Use the abbreviation p. or pp. to designate page numbers of articles from periodicals that do not use volume numbers, especially newspapers. These abbreviations are also used to designate pages in encyclopedia articles and chapters from edited books.
Indentation*: The first line of the entry is flush with the left margin, and all subsequent lines are indented (5 to 7 spaces) to form a "hanging indent".
Underlining vs. Italics*: It is appropriate to use italics instead of underlining for titles of books and journals.
