AMA Style Quick Guide

Each source type is linked to a reputable website or from your CU librarian with an example for how to cite that source. These links help ensure that you are getting the most up-to-date information on all citation sources. 

• Don't use the author’s last name for the in-text citations
• Number each instance when you are referencing an article. (in the order with which you use that reference within your paper.) 
• Use commas to separate multiple citation numbers in text
• Unpublished works and personal communications should be cited in the text (and not on the reference list)
• Superscript numbers: placed outside periods and commas; inside colons and semicolons
• When citing the same source more than once, give the number of the original reference, then include the page number (in parentheses) where the information was found.
