Notes

• Arrange the items on your reference list alphabetically by author, interfiling books, articles, etc.
• Use only the initials of the authors' first (and middle) names.
• If no author is given, start with the title and then the date.
• If you are using a typewriter that cannot produce italics, then use underlining instead.
• Magazine articles: include the month (and day) as shown under Newspapers.
• Websites: if the date the page was created is not given, use (n.d.).
