How to Cite a Report

Government, agency and company reports. When the organisation is both author and publisher, APA prints it once. Examples for APA, MLA, Chicago, Harvard, IEEE, Vancouver, AMA, ACS, Nature, ASA, APSA, OSCOLA, the Bluebook and AGLC4 are below, each produced by the generator itself.
