When the author's name appears in the sentence, it does not need to be repeated in the citation.

Example: 
Recent literature has examined long-run price drifts following initial public offerings and other factors (Ritter 2009). 
Fisher (2010) reaches more or less the same conclusion.

More than one author

Example:
(Smith and Johnson 1998)

More than two authors

Example:
(Smith et al. 2001)

Multiple citations in the same sentence

When referencing multiple studies within the same sentence, cite in order by author's last name

Example:
(Dawson J 2006; Mondari 2010)

No author

Use the first word or first few words of the title. Use only as many words as are needed to distinguish it from other references. 

Example:
(Handbook ... 2000)

When reproducing an image or table in your paper, include an in-text citation for the source directly under the image. 

Include "Reprinted from" (exact reproduction),  "Adapted from" (changed from original source),  or "Based on" (information comes from source but table is not reproduced or adapted).

Example:

Reprinted from Smith 2018

To save space, journal titles are abbreviated according to the ISO 4 standard, shortening significant words and omitting insignificant words. 

NOTE: There is another abbreviation generation CASSI which can also be used. It does not follow CSE so remember to make the appropriate adjustments. 

Read more and search the List of Title Word Abbreviations at ISSN.org.

Journal article

Article titles are not italicized. However, species names are italicized and capitalized normally. 

Example:

In vitro and in vivo reconstitution of the cadherin-catenin-actin complex from Caenorhabditis elegans.

NOTE: As many more journals only publish online, they often don't have page numbers. They will usually have a article number which sometimes has an "e" before it, for example, "e586839." You would use this in place of the page range. 

Journal article with multiple authors

CSE recommends placing reference to personal communications such as letters and conversations with the running text, not as formal end references. The nature and the source of the cited information should be identified by an appropriate statement. Place the source information within parentheses, using a term or terms to indicate clearly that the citation is not represented in the reference list. 

...and most of these meningiomas proved to be inoperable (2003 letter from RS Grant to me; unreferenced, see "Notes") while a few were not. 

The author must provide written permission to the publisher from the cited person (if living) or from the cited organization  if it is carried in a document such as an internal memorandum that is not accessible to scholars. The permission should be acknowledged in an "Acknowledgements" or a "Notes" section that follows the text of an article or is placed at the end of a book's main text; such statements may include additional details such as the reason for the communication.

The Writing Center is staffed by DelVal undergraduate peer tutors who help with writing assignments in all your courses. We view writing as a process that involves planning, reading, drafting, revising, and editing—writing with substance involves discovering your meaning through brainstorming, sharing, and getting lots of feedback.

Tutors help you gain a fresh perspective on the writing process, and can assist with any stage of the process:  choosing a topic or working through writer's block, generating ideas, creating an outline, sharpening a thesis, arranging and organizing paragraphs, citing correctly and fluently, editing grammar and mechanics, and more.

Instructors receive a copy of the tutor report completed during the session, to illustrate your engagement with the writing process and meeting the demands of writing across disciplines.

Services are on a walk-in basis, so no appointment is necessary. Schedules are posted in the Writing Center, on Inside DelVal, and on professors' Blackboard course pages.

Tutors look forward to working with you!
