- In the footnotes, do not use ‘p’ or ‘pp’ before the page numbers.
- In the bibliography (but not the footnotes), invert the first author’s name (i.e. surname, given name).
- In the bibliography, no page numbers are given for books. Give beginning and ending page numbers for book chapters.
- Use the shortened form for second and subsequent footnotes.
- For online books, include the DOI (or URL) as the last part of the citation and refer to section headings in lieu of page numbers.
