("Article title" #)

# refers to the page number

General tips:

  • Capitalize the first word of each title and all words in the title with the exception of the, at, to, in, a, etc.

  • When a citation has more than one line, use a hanging indent. To do this, indent the second line and every line thereafter, to the right five spaces.

  • Alphabetize the entire list by the first word of each citation. This may be the author's last name or the first word in a title.
