How This Works
Builds a reference-list entry following APA 7th edition formatting rules for websites, books, and journal articles — author, year, italicized title, and source details, with a hanging indent as required by APA style. Fill in whichever fields apply; leave the rest blank. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded or stored.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this tool save or send my data anywhere?
No — everything is generated in your browser. Nothing is uploaded or stored.
What if a source has no listed author?
Leave the Author field blank — APA style moves the title to the front of the reference in that case, which this tool handles automatically.
Does this cover every APA source type?
This tool covers the three most common types — websites, books, and journal articles. For less common source types (reports, videos, social media), check the official APA Style guide for the exact format.
