APA references for Theses

vpolito · January 24, 2013

I think I may have found a bug with APA style 6th edition.

When referencing a thesis, the entry in the bibliography is showing up as:

AUTHOR (YEAR). TITLE (TYPE). PLACE: UNIVERSITY.

I think it should be:

AUTHOR (YEAR). TITLE (TYPE). UNIVERSITY: PLACE.

That is according to these guides:

http://libguides.jcu.edu.au/content.php?pid=82408&sid=1181789

I had a quick look at the visual CSL editor but could not figure out how to change this.

confirmed, I'll fix this asap (should be University, Place, not University: Place)

The style is now fixed. The updated version will appear on the repository within 30mins (check the timestamp). Update your copy of the style by re-installing it from the repository. (See here if you need instructions for installing styles in standalone.)
Any further problems please let us know. (I'm actually not sure when this was fixed exactly, but in any case the current style does this correctly).
