A.P.A., M.L.A., H.E.L.P.!

As I mentioned last week, you may find it confusing that last year's textbook used APA style, this year's textbook uses MLA style, and other teachers use another style of citation and reference!

In this class, either MLA or APA will be acceptable. Interestingly, the Wikipedia also has a similar policy, requiring that each page be consistent within itself. This is true for your paper as well. Do not mix and match the styles (if you can avoid it)!

Here are some online links I thought were good. The information on this site is also available in a print booklet,
