Citation Central

APA Citation Generator (Courtesy of Gary Thomas)

  • This citation generator has been created to 'match' the entries in the APA Guide for Anthropology
  • Use this citation generator (never use the one provided by ProQuest, it is filled with errors)
  • Never just copy the citation as it is printed on the academic article (or other source). You need to run it through the generator to standardize the format.

  • You should print this page and keep it at all times for referencing when creating your citations.

  • Several of the examples are specific to anthropology resources.
