Q UOTATIONS
If a direct quote is under 40 words, use quotation
marks.
Ratsoy (2016) suggests that “faculty encourage students to
publically disseminate their work and distribute it to a wider
audience” (p. 10).
If the quotation is 40 words or more, format it as a block
quotation.
Ratsoy (2016) says the following:
Whether through a student undergraduate conference, a guest lecture in a class, a teaching and learning
centre workshop, or a peer-reviewed conference on
or off campus, when students co-present, their belief
in the significance of their research is affirmed by the
audience’s interest in it. (p. 10)
This guide covers only the most common
situations. For more information on citing

R EFERENCES
The reference list begins on a separate page, with
“References” centred at the top.

Alphabetize references according to the last
name of author

Format each reference with a hanging indent
(i.e. with the second and subsequent lines
indented).

WHAT’S NEW IN APA 7th?
A NUTSHELL GUIDE
FORMATTING
Running Heads
Student papers are no longer required to have running heads, so the header contains only the page number.
Titles and Section Heads
Titles and sections heads (e.g., References) are now bolded.
Headings
All levels of headings are now bolded, and level three is left aligned. Levels three and five are italicized.
Fonts
There is far more leeway with respect to the fonts, so long as the same font is used throughout the paper:
Options include: a sans serif font such as 11-point Calibri, 11-point Arial, or 10-point Lucinda Sans
Unicode, or a serif font such as 12-point Times New Roman, 11-point Georgia or normal (10point) Computer Modern. (APA Manual, 7th Edition, p. 44)
It is not entirely clear whether this is intended to be an exhaustive list or whether users are being asked to
exercise their own judgement as to whether any particular font is sufficiently similar to one of those listed
so as to be acceptable in APA style. For this reason, it is recommended that you check with your instructor
before using a font not listed above.
Single Space after Period
APA now requires only a single space after a period.
Singular “They”
APA now recommends using singular “they” in place of the more cumbersome “he or she.”
CITATIONS
Online vs. Print Sources
Whether a source has been accessed in print or online now matters a lot less, particularly for sources
accessed in print of through the Library’s databases.
DOIs are now consistently given as URLs – e.g., https://doi.org.10.1186/1479-5868-9-118
Retrieval dates are no longer necessary unless the source is designed to change over time with no
archival copies kept (so Wikipedia does not require a retrieval statement because it is archived).

WHAT’S NEW IN APA 7TH ? CITATIONS (CONT.)
Journal Articles
Most journal articles are referenced exactly the same way regardless of how they have been accessed: if
there is no DOI, then the entry ends with the page numbers.

Books (including eBooks)
The name of the publisher is included only if the book doesn’t have a DOI – and even then the place of
publication is omitted.

Webpages
The titles of webpages are now italicized, except for blog posts, which are now treated as articles with the
name of the blog standing in for the periodical title. Articles on news websites such as the BBC are treated
not as articles but as webpages.
