What is an ISBN?

ISBN stands for International Standard Book Number and is a 13-digit number that identifies published books. Once an ISBN is assigned to a book, it can never be reused. The International ISBN Agency, based in London, is the registration authority for the Standard on a global basis. ISBNs are calculated using a numerical equation.

What is a reference list in APA style?

The American Psychological Association recommends that you cite any works or individuals whose ideas, theories, or research have directly influenced your work. This means crediting them in-text with a short citation in the author-date format, e.g. (Hattie, 2008), and a full entry in the reference list. The entry in the reference list contains the author, year, title and source of the cited work. The APA style also mandates the formatting and structure of a paper. All the rules of the APA style can be found in the APA Manual, which is currently in its 7th edition.
