Book

Note that the place of publication is no longer required.

The place of pubication is no longer required in book citations for books published since 1900. If for any reason a place is included (authors should resist doing so, but the occasional reference may benefit from readers knowing its place of origin), use the first-listed city on the title page or, if no city is listed there, refer to the copyright page and cite the city where the publisher’s main editorial offices are located. City names are followed by a colon.

If the city of publication may be unknown to readers or may be confused with another city of the same name, add the abbreviation of the state, province, or (if relevant) country (e.g., Ithaca, NY). City names in languages other than English can usually be recorded as they appear in the source; for contemporary publications, however, a commonly used English name may be used instead (e.g., Mexico City for Ciudad de México or Rome for Roma).
