Abstract

Types of information resources were somewhat limited up until the last two decades. Researchers primarily used printed materials such as books, journals and reports. Along with the development of information technologies, the types of information resources have also proliferated. Elecrronic intormation resources in the form of CD­ROMs, electronic books, electronic joumals and web sites have become an indispensable part of not only our daily lives, but also of academic life. Different style books (APA, MLA, ete.) offer different solutions as to how to cite electronic information resources in research reports. This paper summarizes the main points of citing electronic information resources by making use of the American Psychological Association (APA) publication style.

Keywords: Bibliographical citations, Citations of electronic information resources
