Print-Friendly Page
Authors & Contributors

Begin your end documentation on a new page at the end of your document. For instance, if your paper is 6½ pages long, the Appendix should begin on page 8, not halfway down page 7.

Note: Unless informed otherwise, you can count on your instructor not counting the Appendix in the total page count of an eight page assignment.

The page itself should be formatted in the following way:

• The title of the page--Appendix--should be centered one inch from the top of the page.
• Double space between the title and the first entry, then double space all entries.

Individual entries should be formatted in the following way:

• The first line of an entry is flush with the left margin.
• When the entry has a second line, give that line a hanging indent five spaces in from the margin.
• Entries are listed alphabetically by author: last name first.
• Enclose paper, report and book chapter titles in quotation marks.

Bibliographic information should be presented, as necessary, in the following order:

• Author(s); last name first and initials.
• Year of publication.
• Title of paper, report, book or book chapter.
• Name of periodical or journal; volume number, issue number or month.
• Name of publisher.
• City and State where published.
• Page numbers.
