this may help you with referencing & citing a book. Here’s what it should look like (first one for
the online version- second one for the actual hard copy book):

Book titles (& journal titles) are always italicized- edition isn’t italicized.

Friberg, E., & Creasia, J. (2015). Conceptual foundations: The bridge to professional nursing
practice (6th ed.). Retrieved from https://(url goes here)

Friberg, E., & Creasia, J. (2015). Conceptual foundations: The bridge to professional nursing
practice (6th ed.). St. Louis, MO: Elsevier.

In text citations should be like either of these:

According to Friberg and Creasia (2015), ………

Or-

………….. (Friberg & Creasia, 2015).

If you use a quote in a citation, include the page or paragraph number.

First example: is fine- use p. or pp. when listing a page (p. if it is only one page)

Second example: According to Hauserman (2019), .............

if it is a direct quote: According to Hauserman (2019),"..........." (p. X). or para. X

For the title of page/document in an online reference, only capitalize the first word, proper
nouns, & the first word after a colon or hyphen. Be careful to not have your words over any
graphics. Your background color makes reading your print hard. Reference: don't use quotation
marks; see your APA resource for how to format a volume, number, etc. in a journal reference.
