Some books have specific editions listed. Include the edition after the title of the book in both the footnote and the bibliography. You do not have to include the edition if it is the first edition. Shorten the word "edition" to "ed.".
FOOTNOTE Example:
BIBLIOGRAPHY Example:
Kirsh, Steven J. Children, Adolescents, and Media Violence: A Critical Look at the Research. 2nd ed. Thousand Oaks: Sage Publications, 2006.
Authors/Editors
An author can be a person but can also be an organization, or company. These are called group or corporate authors.
If you are citing a chapter from a book that has an editor, the author of the chapter is listed first, and is the name listed in the in-text citation.
Publishers
You have the option to use the shortened name of the publisher. For example, you can use UP instead of University Press (e.g. Oxford UP instead of the full name Oxford University Press).
You also have the option to remove articles (A, An, The), business abbreviations (e.g. Co., Inc.) and descriptive words (e.g. Books, House, Press, Publishers).
