6. Set Up the References List
The references list should be on a new page and should be the last section of your paper.
Heading of Reference List
The heading at the top of the reference list should say References at the top (not Bibliography or Works Cited, unless your instructor tells you otherwise) and bolded.
Hanging Indent
All reference lists should have a hanging indent. An example of a hanging indent is shown below:
George, M. W. (2008). The elements of library research: What every student needs to know. Princeton University Press.
To create a hanging indent in Word, you can press the Control key along with the letter T.
+
Spacing
Line spacing in the reference list should be set to double (2.0).
Alphabetizing
When organizing your references list, you must alphabetize your references. Generally, you will organize by the author’s last name. Go letter by letter and ignore spaces, hyphens, punctuation etc.
If a work has no author, use the title to alphabetize. You will use the first significant word to alphabetize; this means you skip words like the, a, and an.
Example of Proper Order:
1. Alcott, L. M. (1868)…
2. Alcott, L. M. (1893)…
3. Anonymous. (1998). Beowulf…
4. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. (n.d.).
5. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. (2017).
6. Etiquette in Florida. (n.d.).
7. Grammar Girl. (2009, May 21)…

But What About…?
The Font?
APA does not specify a specific font or size, just that it must be legible. Their only guidelines is that the same font should be used throughout the paper. Some suggestions are 11-point Calibri, 11-point Arial, 10-point Lucida Sans Unicode, 12-point Times New Roman, and 11-point Georgia.
If your instructor has specified a font or font size, follow those guidelines.

The Running Head?
