Textbook References Textbook Citation Follow APA format for textbook and other reference citations unless a different style is specified by the discipline. Example: “Smith, J. (2020). Project management essentials. Academic Press.” Use the Excelsior Online Writing Lab for additional guidance and examples: Excelsior OWL. Text & Page References When directing students to specific sections of a text: Use quotation marks around section or heading titles. Use title case for the section title, if that’s how it’s displayed in the textbook. Only use italics when the text in the source document uses italics. Example: The section titled “Jurisdiction and Forum Shopping” in Chapter 4 of your textbook provides a closer look at the Enron case. Only reference the textbook or page numbers when essential for locating specific information or directing students to critical content. We want to avoid specific references when possible for course maintenance purposes. Use page numbers in the format “p. X” for single pages and “pp. X–Y” for page ranges, ensuring accuracy and consistency. PreviousIdioms, Colloquialisms, and Cultural ReferencesNext Course References
