APA 6th edition: no accessed date listed for database Newspaper Articles

abick034
I'm trying to generate a bibliography for my references. I want to use APA 6th edition. For online database newspapers, Zotero is not listing my accessed date for the reference. I don't have a DOI so I was hoping the accessed date would show up.

Thoughts?

    bwiernik knows the details of this better, but are we sure we need an access date? I though APA mostly took those out?

    Yeah, APA almost never includes the access date.

    Page 192 of the publication manual:
    "Do not include retrieval dates unless the source material may change over time(e.g., Wikis)." (specifically, nonarchived wiki pages)
