APA Question

Q: Where can I find information on citing in American Medical Association (AMA) format and a list of the National Library of Medicine abbreviations?

APA Answer

A:

Information regarding AMA style and citations can be found in the library's Research Guides (https://guides.westcoastuniversity.edu/c.php?g=998651&p=7229230) as well as through EBSCO Connect (https://connect.ebsco.com/s/article/Citing-Articles-in-AMA-Style?language=en_US).  

In reference listings, AMA style requires the names of journals to be abbreviated according to the US National Library of Medicine.  To search for abbreviations using the full journal title, go to: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nlmcatalog/journals.
