Publication information<br />

(Periodical Issue: Pages.)<br />

Begin with the author(s) and title of the article, as you would a book part. Then<br />

list the title of the periodical, the issue, and pages where the article can be found.<br />

Note that different types of periodicals identify their issues in different ways:<br />

• Are you citing an editorial, review, letter, or advertisement? See also<br />

Section 27b-13 on pages 326–3<strong>27.</strong><br />

• Are you citing a newspaper article? Identify the paper by the date that<br />

appears on its masthead. After the date, provide information about the<br />

edition or section where you found the article. Do not list volume or<br />

issue numbers. See Models 20, 21<br />

• Are you citing a magazine article? Identify the issue of the magazine<br />

by the date that appears on the cover—do not list volume or issue number.<br />

See Models 22, 23<br />

• Are you citing a journal article? Identify the issue of the journal by its<br />

volume and issue numbers (separated by a period) and year (in parentheses).<br />

You may omit the issue number when the journal is paginated<br />

by volume, rather than issue. See Models 24, 25<br />
