Access Date
For all content found on the Web, you must list the date you first viewed the resource. This comes last in a citation. The exception to this rule is that you do not list access dates for content found in library databases.
Database Names
The name of the database will usually appear at the top of the search screen. Note that ProQuest and EBSCOhost are NOT database names, they are database providers. The name of the database will appear separately.
Dates
The format of all dates is: Date Month (shortened) Year. (e.g., 5 Sept. 2016)
If no date is listed, leave it out of the Works Cited List citation.
Page Numbers
If no page number is listed, leave it out of the Works Cited List and In-text citations.
Titles
Capitalize the first letter of every important word in the title. You do not need to capitalize words such as: in, of, or an.
If there is a colon (:) in the title, include what comes after the colon (also known as the subtitle).
If the title is missing (as in some Passport GMID Academic reports), provide a brief and succinct description of the report or information in place of the title.
Note: For your Works Cited list, all citations should be double spaced and have a hanging indent.
A "hanging indent" means that each subsequent line after the first line of your citation should be indented by 0.5 inches.
