APA style serves a common system for standardizing writing and provides a way for giving credit to others for their contribution to your work. Since the citations to original sources appear directly in your text, this allows the reader to see immediately where your information comes from while saving you the trouble of having to make footnotes or endnotes. The official website for APA Style is http://www.apastyle.org/
Below is a brief list for learning more about the basic formatting rules of APA writing style. However, the APA Manual should always be given precedence to any information from a website. When in doubt, check the latest edition of the APA Manual.
