Answer

For basic instructions on how to do a reference page in APA style, visit our Cite APA Style LibGuide (linked below). We have examples on how to create citations for books, websites, journals, database articles, etc.

The Cite the EZ Way tab in that LibGuide shows you how to get citations from Gale. You will use the citation tool, select APA, click save in the dialog box that appears, and copy and paste the citation that appears in the browswer. You will need to correct for double spacing and hanging indent.

Also, visit Purdue Owl's APA Guide for more detailed instructions, examples, and even a sample paper so you can see what it should look like.
