== Title case in references == The use of title case or sentence case in the references of scholarly publications is determined by the used citation style and can differ from the usage in title or headings. For example, [[APA style|APA Style]] uses sentence case for the title of the cited work in the list of references, but it uses title case for the title of the current publication (or for the title of a publication if it is mentioned in the text instead). Moreover, it uses title case for the title of [[Periodical literature|periodicals]] even in the references.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Lee |first=Chelsea |date=2012-03-09 |title=APA Style 6th Edition Blog: Title Case and Sentence Case Capitalization in APA Style |url=https://blog.apastyle.org/apastyle/2012/03/title-case-and-sentence-case-capitalization-in-apa-style.html |archive-url= |archive-date= |access-date=2021-01-13 |website=blog.apastyle.org}}</ref> Other citation styles like ''Chicago Manual of Style'' are using title case also for the title of cited works in the list of references.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date= |title=Why don't titles show up in sentence case in bibliographies? |url=https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/sentence_casing |archive-url= |archive-date= |access-date=2021-01-13 |website=Zotero Documentation}}</ref>
