Last October, APA went into its 7th edition.  Not everyone are using APA, but a heads up for you who are:

The Library’s OneSearch system and databases like PsycInfo, have a citation feature that can
generate APA citations.  The EBSCO platform that runs these databases has gone to the 7th edition.  Many students will now be presenting reference lists using APA 7th edition, since many of the students rely on the citation generator featured in the Library’s databases.

This update means:

  1. Articles with a doi use the preface https:// before the doi.
  2. Articles with no doi now have no URL, just the bare bones citation ending with page numbers.
  3. Books no longer indicate place of publication, only the publisher name.
