Course packs - Reproduced Articles or Book Chapters (APA Style Blog https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/references/examples/classroom-course-references)
- If the articles in the course pack are reproduced from another widely available source without any changes cite that source directly, e.g. cite the journal article like a regular journal article or book chapter like a regular book chapter.
Course Packs - Original material (10.3 example 38-49 APA Publication Manual) For original material in a course pack, follow the format for Chapters in an edited book.
- Use the course instructor name as the author (unless another original material author is indicated).
- If the author of the course pack material is unknown, move the title of the material to the author position of the reference.
- Use the course instructor name as the editor.
- When the course instructor is also the author of the material, the name of the instructor appears twice as both author and editor.
- If the instructor's name is not given, use the department as the editor.
- Use the bookstore as the publisher and the date the course pack was issued as the date of publication.
- If there is no date of issue, use the current semester and year for the date of publication.
