Referencing: APA referencing

About reference lists

A Reference List is a list of all the sources you have cited or directly quoted within your assignment. No additional items may be included.

APA format rules

• Reference Lists should be at the end of the assignment on a separate page titled ‘References.’
• It should be arranged alphabetically by author.
• Use double line-spacing between entries.
• Second and subsequent lines of references must be indented approx. 1.271 cm or 4-5 spaces.
• If there is more than one entry for the same author, list entries by year with the earliest first.
• If there is more than one entry for the same author and year, list entries alphabetically by title, and add a lower case letter to each year: ‘a’ for the first, ‘b’ for the second, etc.
