[nabs-l] Formatting in MLA and APA using a ma

[Karl Martin Adam]

Lil is right; the Perdue Owl 
<https://owl.english.purdue.edu.html> is a great resource.  I 
don't know anything about using a Mac, but most of the formatting 
you'll have to do isn't part of MLA or APA.  MLA and APA are 
mostly about how to cite sources (though APA has some weird 
things about headers), but the formatting you'll have to do will 
be based on instructions from your professor--typically one inch 
margins, twelve point Times New Roman font, and double spacing.  
Again I have no idea if you can accessibly make the Mac do that, 
but my guess would be that you can.  I would suggest contacting 
Apple technical support if you have difficulty and asking for 
someone who knows Voice Over.

Best,
Karl

The Perdue OWL should be able to get you started. I was taught 
that this was the gold standard for siting sources. However make 
sure that your college doesn't have any specific requirements 
because I was told that somecdid.

 Hello  Kayla Weathers,



 Please also make sure you have the latest books on MLA and APA 
styles when
 citing your sources. Most colleges have policies regarding 
plagiarism, so
 you must watch out. If you should have any problems and need 
assistance you
 need to contact the dean of students at your college. I hope 
this helps. I
 would really like to know how you people use Pages to cite 
sources in MLA
 and APA formats for publishing college research papers.

 Kayla,

 It should be. MLA and APA formatting is mostly about spacing and 
margins,
 so as long as you set those you should be okay. Don't quote me 
on that,
 though! Smile!

 Best,

 Candice
