Alphabetize reference list entries by the last name of the first author of each work. Capitalize only the first letter of the first word of a title and subtitle, the first word after a colon, and proper nouns. APA is a complex system of citations, which is difficult to keep in mind. The following strategy may be helpful. Identify a type source: Is it a book? A journal article? A webpage? Find a sample of citing this type of source in the citation-reference handout or APA Manual. Mirror the sample. When the parenthetical citation includes two or more works, place them in the order they appear in the reference list – author’s name, the year of publication – separated by a semi-colon: (Kachru, 2005; Smith, 2008) Use: The THIRD PERSON point of view The study showed that...
