On-line sources

The biggest difficulty in citing information found on-line is usually in finding complete information. In addition, since on-line information may disappear at any time, it is of particular importance to give the date that information was accessed. As much of the following information should be given as possible:

· Author’s name (last name first in bibliographies)

· Title of work in italics (book) or quotation marks (article)

· Title of complete work (if applicable) in italics

· Original publication information (if previously in print)

· Any version or file numbers, type of on-line source in brackets

· Date of document or last revision (if available)

· Protocol (http) and full URL

· Date of access in parentheses
