APA Style Update 7th Edition

PaulAtKent · August 6, 2019

I apologize if there is already a discussion of this. But just wondered about *plans and/or *progress and/or *need for updating Zotero and ZoteroBib to be in line with changes as a result of the new Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, Seventh Edition (2020).

I’ll work on it as soon as I have a copy of the new manual.

Hi again....and thanks. It will be interesting to see what and how much needs to be changed.... Again, thanks.

Based on the “what’s new” preview, not much of anything is changing—It’s a lot of removing inconsistencies. That’s exciting.

Cool ! Step at a time :-)

Biggest change I see at this point is the removal of "retrieved from". I have a whole reference section full of them to deal with in my PhD proposal that I need to hand in at the start of January. I really don't want to have to turn the formatting off to change manually. Did that once and when I went to make corrections to the document I couldn't being the citations back.

The style is available for download. See: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/79065/apa-style-7th-ed#latest
(and it will very likely be updated on the main repository for all users very soon)
