· The word References should be centered and bold at the top of the page.
· Double-space your reference list.
· For each author, list the last name first followed by the initials for their first and middle names.
·
Arrange your reference list alphabetically by the last name of the author.
· Use a hanging indent after the first line of your citation (Word does this for you). Type your entry and then click “Paragraph” on the HOME tab to create the “hanging indent.”
