Tips for this reference type

  • See Manual 14.165, 14.168, and 14.161.
  • Any facts relevant to identifying the item should be included (i.e. additional writers, actors, producers). See above links for examples.
  • Segment titles should appear in quotation marks. Names of interview subjects should just appear in roman text.
  • Bibliography entries are usually listed by title. The order of the citation elements may depend on the nature of the resource and on what the focus of the citation is (i.e. you may cite the director's name first if the direction of the work is your primary focus).
  • For recordings accessed online, if there is no date of production or broadcast provided, you should include an access date prior to the URL. E.g. "...accessed Month Day, Year, URL." See Manual 13.15.
