That is, here is APA:
Now here's me:
Does that seem right? Even though The Shakespeare Association isn't a government agency? Most importantly of all, do you think (even given the instruction "pick a style manual and stick with it") anyone will give a damn?
That is, here is APA:
Australian Bureau of Statistics. (1991). Estimated resident population by age and sex in statistical local areas, New South Wales, June 1990 (No. 3209.1). Canberra, Australian Capital Territory: Author.
(but with the right indents and things.)
Bjork, R. A. (1989). Retrieval inhibition as an adaptive mechanism in human memory. In H.L. Roediger III & F.I.M. Craik (Eds.), Varieties of memory & consciousness (pp. 309-330). Hillsdale, NJ: Erlbaum.
Now here's me:
Greg, W. W. (1924). The First Folio and its Publishers. In The Shakespeare Association, Studies in the First Folio (pp. 129-156). London: Oxford University Press.
Does that seem right? Even though The Shakespeare Association isn't a government agency? Most importantly of all, do you think (even given the instruction "pick a style manual and stick with it") anyone will give a damn?
