Notes on style
  • Give author, or start with title if no author.
  • Give title (quotation marks). If needed, add description (e.g., Letter) before title, or give alone.
  • Give newspaper/magazine name (italics). Omit ‘The’ if at beginning. If city is not in name, add this in square brackets, no italics. If separate section, add name (no italics) after title.
  • Give date of publication followed by page numbers. If non-consecutive, add plus sign (See: Newspapers - No consecutive page numbers).
  • Online: Give website name (italics), publisher of website, date of publication, medium of publication (Web), and retrieval date. If article is a digital replica of print edition, include page numbers.
  • For works that are anonymously authored, or have no author, include a shortened version of the title in the in-text citation (do not list the author as "anonymous", nor as "anon.").
