APA Seventh Edition and SLC
As of Fall 2020, the Academic Support Centre assumes every course/program/instructor has updated to the 7th edition of APA style. The Centre will provide guidance for proper APA formatting, citation, and referencing in accordance with these rules, and limited 6th edition support will be available only by special request.
Are you still working toward implementing the 7th edition of the APA Manual of Style into your Winter 2021 or Summer 2021 course(s)?
If you are still working through transitioning and would like support or resources to help facilitate the change to 7th edition APA style, please connect with the Academic Support Centre via ASC@sl.on.ca or connect with the Centre coordinator (Jason Boutilier | JBoutilier@sl.on.ca).
