6.1 Books
A reference to a book should include the following information:
a) surname first name of the author(s) or editor(s), or if the work is edited, add
(ed.) or (eds):
Coulthard Malcolm (ed.) 1994.
b) year of publication followed by a FULL STOP. If you are using a new (revised)
edition of a work, always use the date of the new edition and give the number of
the edition after the title followed by a FULL STOP. If you are using a book which
has been published more than once without being revised, give both the original
date of publication in square brackets and the date of the version you are using
followed by a FULL STOP:
Austen Jane [1813] 1978.
c) if you refer to more than one work published during the same year by the same
author, list them in alphabetical order by title and separate them using letters
after the year:
Hoey 1986a, 1986b.
d) title and subtitle in italics; use capital initials for content words followed by a
FULL STOP. If the work consists of several volumes, give the volume number(s) and
possible volume title followed by a FULL STOP. The example below is correct:
Keen Suzanne 1998. Victorian Renovations of the Novel: Narrative Annexes and
the Boundaries of Representation. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press.
If relevant, give the series title unitalicised and the number of volume followed by
a FULL STOP:
Cooper Charles R. & Greenbaum Sidney (eds) 1986. Studying Writing: Linguistic
Approaches. Written Communication Annual 1. Beverly Hills, CA: Sage.
e) place of publication (i.e. the city or town where the head office of the publisher –
not the printer – is located) followed by a COLON name of publisher followed by a
FULL STOP. If two cities are listed for the publisher, you should use both. Note that
