![]() | LEO: Literacy Education Online APA Unpublished Work and Publications of Limited Circulation |
Examples of how to document the most common types of unpublished work and publications of limited circulation are illustrated in this document. However, you might need to use a reference for a source which is not listed on this document.
In such a case, refer to the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association. (2001). (5th ed.). Washington, DC: American Psychological Association. Choose the example that is most like your source and follow that format.
Personal communications, including letters and memos, are considered nonrecoverable; data that is not recoverable is cited in the text only, not in the reference list. For more information, see APA In-Text (Parenthetical) Documentation, Treatment of Nonrecoverable Sources.
