APA Style

There is no online access to the complete APA Style Manual, but print copies are available in the Libraries. Many free resources on the web usually work well for most people. Start with the official APA Style site. It is a clear and well-organized site with many helpful examples.

PsycInfo and many other databases will have a "cite" button or something similar that will allow you to generate a citation for your bibliography. Treat this citation as a "first draft" and carefully check it for mistakes.
