How to cite an encyclopedia in apa
Use the last name of the author and the year of publication for parenthetical citations.
Apa in-text citations are parenthetical. This means that a citation should be included in parentheses at the end of a sentence or paragraph that contains information from your encyclopedia article.
Do this by including the last name of the entry author and year of publication. The citation should always be added before the period at the end of the sentence like this: (surname year).
