One author:

• Web Usability Studies are commonly conducted in libraries (Mardis, 2014, p. 5).

Two authors: 

Cite both author names in every reference:

• Other authors also agreed that libraries should adapt rapidly to change (Mardis & Johnson, 2014, p. 6).

Three to five authors:

Cite all authors the first time the reference occurs:

• This is an important issue highlighted by additional authors (Baudino, Johnson, & Mardis, 2013, para. 5).

For subsequent citation(s), include the surname of the first author followed by et al.:

• The other important issues were also highlighted (Baudino et al., 2013, para. 6).

Six or more authors:

Include the surname of the first author followed by et al.:

• Apparently, other authors agree entirely with this point (Mardis et al., 2014, p. 8).

No Author:

• Use the first few words of the reference list entry (usually the title) and the year. Use double quotation marks around the title or abbreviated title.
• Example: ("All 33 Chile Miners," 2010).

No Date:

• Use "n.d." for "no date"
• Example: ("Quick Answers--References," n.d.).

• When multiple studies support an argument, include multiple citations inside the same set of parentheses.
• Within the parentheses, alphabetize the studies as they appear in the reference list and separate with semicolons.

• Example: Mardis, Drew, and Johnson (2012) reported an increase in fluency among third grade students, while Brady (2010) reported a decrease. Baudino and Wyatt (2013) found no significant differences in reading fluency.

• Invert all authors' names in the order in which they appear in the original text.
  • Example: Author, A. A., Author B. B., & Author, C. C.
• Use commas to separate authors, to separate surnames and initials, and to separate initials and sufixes (such as Jr. and III).
  • Example: Smith, A. K., Jr., & Jameson, P. R.

  • Example: Author, A. A., Author B. B., & Author, C. C.
