Instruction manual
one
Specify the surname and initials of the author of the article. The design of the article in the list of references should begin precisely with the name of the author. After it, indicate the initials with a space. For example: Ivanov I.I. Do not forget that a dot is placed after each initial. If there are several authors, indicate them separated by commas: Ivanov II, Petrov P.P.
2
Capitalize the title of the article without quotation marks. There should not be any punctuation marks between the initials already indicated and the title of the article, except for the period after the initials of the last author. You should come to this result: Ivanov II, Petrov P.P. Why is the sun shining?
3
Indicate the name of the journal or publication where the article you used in the work was published. The name of the publication is written without quotation marks. Between the titles of the article and the publication, put a space, two slashes, tilted to the right, and again a space. Example: Ivanov I.I., Petrov P.P. Why is the sun shining? // The science.
4
Write further the year of publication, the number in which the article was published, and the pages on which it is located. Indicate this data with a dash. Please note that when specifying pages, use the abbreviation "c." Rather than "page." An article is framed correctly if it has the following form: Ivanov II, Petrov P.P. Why is the sun shining? // Science - 2011 - No. 6 - p. 14-15.
5
Change the design of the article if it was taken from an electronic source. In this case, after the year of publication, indicate in square brackets that this is an electronic resource. Example: Ivanov I.I., Petrov P.P. Why is the sun shining? // Science - 2011. [Electronic resource].
6
Write the address where the article you used is located. After the URL, indicate in parentheses the date you contacted this source. The end result: Ivanov I.I., Petrov P.P. Why is the sun shining? // Scientific library - 2011. [Electronic resource]. URL: link (accessed September 27, 2011).
