I shared the exchange with my librarians. We are always frustrated with
the slowness of APA and MLA to react to format changes, never mind
anything digital. Seems like the vocabulary they use is never quite what
WE use. And we are persnickety about it, too!

I don't know anything about this, but I just love any email that uses
persnickety.

Hi all, 

 

A very persnickety question.  When citing film with the new APA style
guidelines, 6th edition, is format always listed as [motion picture] or
can it be a more medium specific, [DVD]. 

 

Thanks,

Kim

of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video
producers and distributors.
