please help!!!!does anyone know how to cite a story inside of a book with lots of other stories in it.?

Answer 1

Here is an example:

Fox, P.F., "The Milk Protein System", in Developments in Dairy Chemistry, P.F. Fox, Editor. 1989, Elsevier Applied Science: New York. p. 1-53.

Answer 2

A book that contains many stories is called an anthology. It is not necessary to cite the anthology itself, unless the story is printed only within the anthology (extremely unlikely as anthologies print only stories that are already famous). You can cite the first place (newspaper, magazine or whatever) that the story was printed. However, if you MUST cite the anthology, you first provide all of the info. for the story itself (name of author & name of story always come first), and THEN, you can say in what anthology it was printed. For instance, you could say: Borges, Jorges Luis. "A Garden of Forking Paths," in "Literature" (6th. Edition), edited by Robert DiYanni (pages 378 -- 384). Published by McGraw Hill, 2007. ISBN13:978-0-07-312426-1.

Exactly how you cite the book will depend on the citation style mandated (MLA, APA, and Chicago are the three most well-regarded and popular styles). For instance, you may need to use italics instead of quotation marks and, in some cases, the date may be required immediately after the title of the story and so on. Also, you may be required to cite TWO dates (date of first publication and date of publication in the anthoogy).

Answer 3

This is MLA. I don't know about APA.


Author of the story. "Story Title." Book Title; page numbers. Editors of the book (if not a collection by one author). City where published: Publisher. Publication Date.

Underline the book title (or italicize if that's what you do.)

Answer 4

quote mark the story, underline the book.
