APA, 6th Edition Overview

This LibGuide is to help you use the American Psychological Association (APA) style guide, which is frequently used for the social sciences including education, management, psychology, and the health sciences.


This guide can help you with the more fundamental tasks including:

1. Reference Formats - examples and explanations for citing your sources in the various formats for your References list

2. Formatting Your Paper - how to set up your paper including the margins, font, and your References list, and view a sample paper

3. In-text citations - also known as parenthetical notation - how to cite your references in the text of your paper

4. EndNote - bibliographic citation software, which can help format your citations and is freely available for download to CSS faculty, staff, and students 

5. Ethically Use Sources - information on the College's academic honesty policy and turnitin, an online tool to detect where sources need to be cited

NOTE: This guide is in no way a replacement for the actual manual, which is several hundred pages long, and can be found in the Library on reserve or at a bookstore near you. Please consult the APA 6th edition manual for authoritative information in greater detail. Also feel free to talk with a librarian for more help.
