How do I cite a source that has no date?

Answer

Replace the date element with the initials (n.d.).

Note: Do not use the copyright year on websites. Copyright on webpages refers to legal ownership and not the publication date.

 Create a reference                                                                                                     

 

   Template                                                                                                               

Organizational Name or Author(s) last name, initial.  (n.d.). Title. Source  

                                                               

   Example   

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. (n.d.). Influenza prevention: Information for travellers. https://www.cdc.gov/flu/school-business/travelersfacts.htm

 

 Create a citation                                                                          
 

 

   Template   
(Organizational Author Name, Year of publication )  

(Organizational Author Name, Year of publication, p. #)

 

   Example   

(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, n.d.)  

(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, n.d, p. 8)
