Citation Style Guides

Are you updating Policies and Procedures?
Wondering what to do with the bibliography of references?

Long Island University provides a handy color-coded AMA Citation Style Guide at http://www.liu.edu/cwis/cwp/library/workshop/citama.htm

It’s easy to use, and easy to parse because of the color coding. It offers clear formatted examples for citing the following :

* Book
* Journal Article (with or without volume numbers)
* Book Article or Chapter
* Website
* Journal Article on the Internet.

If you don’t like that presentation, try The AMA Style Guide from The University of Washington at http://healthlinks.washington.edu/hsl/styleguides/ama.html .
