Spacing Citations

Each citation style has specific rules for indentation and spacing within entries. The first line of each citation should start at the left margin and subsequent lines subsequent lines should be indented.  Use the following guidelines when preparing your list of resources:

  • MLA:  double-space the Works Cited page
  • APA:  double-space the References page
  • Chicago:  double-space the Bibliography page
  • ASA: double-space the References page
  • Turabian: single-space within each entry and double-space between entries on the Works Cited page

Your list of citations should always be organized alphabetically. For more detailed information on formatting your essay and creating citations, refer to the published citation style guides.
 

Avoiding Plagiarism

Writers cite their sources for a number of different reasons.  However, there is not a single good reason for the improper use or faulty citation of research sources.  Visit the Citing Sources Menu Page for information on avoiding plagiarism..
