In MLA style the book title is underlined and the citation is double-spaced. The first line is not indented, but subsequent lines are indented. You control these format features in your own word-processor. Copying the text we produce here will not always replicate these formats, though we have tried to illustrate the way your format should look. The underlining and double-spacing apply because the MLA style is usually used to submit manuscripts to typesetters who need clear copy. They will change the underlining to italics and the spacing to single spacing. If you are preparing references for a course, please consult the instructor. If you are preparing references for a website you are producing yourself, you may change the underlined material to italics and the spacing to single-spacing. Additional note: In MLA style, the webpage URL is inside visible angle brackets. It is not a typo that the angle brackets do not contain the standard HTML code necessary to link to the website! In MLA style, the URL is placed within visible angle brackets to demarcate the beginning and end of the URL clearly.
In APA style the book title is italicized and the reference is single-spaced. The first line is indented, and subsequent lines are indented further in the final printed form. Copying the text we produce here will not always replicate these formats, though we have tried to illustrate the way your format should look. However, parallel to MLA style, if the manuscript is being submitted to a publisher, underlining and double-spacing may be requested rather than italics and single-spacing. Also: for submitting manuscripts, you may use an ordinary tab indent without the hanging indent. If you are preparing references for a course, please consult the instructor.
In Turabian style the book title is italicized and the reference is single-spaced. The first line is not indented, and subsequent lines are also not indented. The style shown here is for footnotes and bibliographies. (There is an alternative style for parenthetical references.) No definitive guidelines have been set to date, and there is some variation from one online source to the next about the punctuation and capitalization for the portion referring to the URL and access date. See the recommended sites below, and the printed manual, A Manual for Writers of Term Papers, Theses, and Dissertations, Kate Turabian, 6th edition, particularly Chapter 11, for additional information. Copying the text we produce here will not always replicate these formats, though we have tried to illustrate the way your format should look. However, parallel to MLA style, if the manuscript is being submitted to a publisher, underlining and double-spacing may be requested rather than italics and single-spacing. If you are preparing references for a course, please consult the instructor.
