How to format your references using the History and Anthropology citation style

This is a short guide how to format citations and the bibliography in a manuscript for History and Anthropology. For a complete guide how to prepare your manuscript refer to the journal's instructions to authors.

Using reference management software

Typically you don't format your citations and bibliography by hand. The easiest way is to use a reference manager:

PaperpileThe citation style is built in and you can choose it in Settings > Citation Style or Paperpile > Citation Style in Google Docs.
EndNoteDownload the output style file
Mendeley, Zotero, Papers, and othersThe style is either built in or you can download a CSL file that is supported by most references management programs.
BibTeXBibTeX syles are usually part of a LaTeX template. Check the instructions to authors if the publisher offers a LaTeX template for this journal.

Journal articles

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

A journal article with 1 authorCorbyn, Zoë. 2011. “Science Education: Research on the Reservation.” Nature 471 (7336): 25–26.A journal article with 2 authorsXu, Wei, and Thomas C. Südhof. 2013. “A Neural Circuit for Memory Specificity and Generalization.” Science (New York, N.Y.) 339 (6125): 1290–1295.A journal article with 3 authorsRoy, Sougata, Frank Hsiung, and Thomas B. Kornberg. 2011. “Specificity of Drosophila Cytonemes for Distinct Signaling Pathways.” Science (New York, N.Y.) 332 (6027): 354–358.A journal article with 11 or more authorsKing, A., G. Johnson, D. Engelberg, W. Ludwig, and J. Marrow. 2008. “Observations of Intergranular Stress Corrosion Cracking in a Grain-Mapped Polycrystal.” Science (New York, N.Y.) 321 (5887): 382–385.

Web sites

Sometimes references to web sites should appear directly in the text rather than in the bibliography. Refer to the Instructions to authors for History and Anthropology.

Blog postDavis, Josh. 2016. “Australian Rabbits Adapting To Eat Plants Thought To Be Too Toxic.” IFLScience. IFLScience. https://www.iflscience.com/plants-and-animals/australian-rabbits-adapting-to-eat-plants-thought-to-be-too-toxic/.

Reports

This example shows the general structure used for government reports, technical reports, and scientific reports. If you can't locate the report number then it might be better to cite the report as a book. For reports it is usually not individual people that are credited as authors, but a governmental department or agency like "U. S. Food and Drug Administration" or "National Cancer Institute".

Government reportGovernment Accountability Office. 1979. Data Base Management Systems--Without Careful Planning There Can Be Problems. FGMSD-79-35. Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office.

Theses and dissertations

Theses including Ph.D. dissertations, Master's theses or Bachelor theses follow the basic format outlined below.

Doctoral dissertationCalhoun, Grayson Ford. 2009. “Limit Theory for Overfit Models.” Doctoral dissertation, La Jolla, CA: University of California San Diego.

News paper articles

Unlike scholarly journals, news papers do not usually have a volume and issue number. Instead, the full date and page number is required for a correct reference.

New York Times articlede la MERCED, Michael J. 2017. “Looking to Bulk Up Sprint, SoftBank Is Casting an Eye on Charter.” New York Times, August 7.

This sentence cites one reference (Corbyn 2011).This sentence cites two references (Corbyn 2011; Xu and Südhof 2013).

Here are examples of in-text citations with multiple authors:

  • Two authors: (Xu and Südhof 2013)
