I forgot, do you underline, Italicize or put in quotations a name of a book when you are writing about it?

Question

When you are like typing a paper on it and want to refer to the name of the book.

Answer 1

It depends on the style you are using, but in AP style, titles of books are put in quotes and NEVER italicized.

In APA style, they are italicized.
"Underlining vs. Italics *: It is appropriate to use italics instead of underlining for titles of books and journals."

In MLA style, book titles are underlined.

Answer 2

Underlining was the substitute for italics when people used typewriters and didn't have italics. The name of a book should be italicized. (It would have been quicker if you had found this on the web yourself, and even quicker if you had picked up a good book that had references and looked to see what it did.)

Answer 3

Underline

Answer 4

if you`re writing it out by hand it should be underlined. if it`s a short story it should be in quotations. but if you`re typing italicizing things can substitute. but if you want to be safe then underline it.

Answer 5

Novels are underlined, poems and short stories are italicized.

Answer 6

You underline it. Sometimes people put it in ALL CAPS instead.

Answer 7

I've seen 'em undeline on some occasions, but it should always be put it in quotes.
