Intro

If you are using a screen reader to view this page, please be aware that the templates and examples contain important punctuation and formatting, such as commas, full stops, uppercase text and italics, that are a vital part of referencing. You may need to change the punctuation settings and other settings on your screen reader software in order to correctly hear this information. It may work best to turn on an indication for capital letters and to navigate the templates one character at a time to ensure that all punctuation and capital letters are announced correctly. If you have any problems with this, please contact the library.

Please ensure that you follow the template exactly, including text formatting (CAPITALS, italics), and any punctuation.

Use this template if the journal article has only been published online. If there is a paper version available, follow the generic journal article template instead.
