There are many rules about basic formatting for books. When referring to books, chapters, articles, or Web pages, capitalize only the first letter of the first word of a title and subtitle, the first word after a colon or a dash in the title, and proper nouns. Do not capitalize the first letter of the second word in a hyphenated compound word. Italicize titles of longer works such as books and journals. Examples are not double-spaced, but your References list should be double-spaced. Examples do not show indented lines after the first line, but yours should be indented. | |||
