 Reference Format
A number is assigned to each reference as it is used.
Even if the author is named in your text, a number must still be used.
The original number assigned to the reference is used each time that reference is
cited in the text.
The first reference you cite will be numbered 1 in the text, and the second
reference you cite will be numbered 2, and so on.
If you cite reference number 1 again later in the text, you will cite it using the
number 1.
References are listed in numerical order in a bibliography at the end of your
essay.
 Journal articles

If you are citing more than one source at the same point, do this: (1-3), (1, 4)
