Generally, the Journal of Finnish Studies follows APA style conventions. The Purdue OWL
website is a useful tool for APA style when in doubt: http://owl.english.purdue.
edu/owl/resource/560/01/
In-Text Citations: In-text citations are parenthetical including author’s surname, year of
publication and page number(s):
(Leary, 2009, pp. 100-109)
These works are then fully cited in a references section at the end of the paper. Reference
formats for the most common materials used will be provided below. Additionally, the
Purdue OWL site features helpful advice on citation formats in various unique circumstances.
Footnotes: In-text notes, contrary to APA style guidelines, are in the form of footnotes at
the bottom of the page in which the note is inserted for the convenience of readers.
Pagination: Although submissions are not required to be paginated by the author, if this is
most convenient, please place page numbers in the center bottom position of each page.
Photographs/Charts/Graphics: Authors are welcome to submit visual materials for
consideration with their articles. Unless prior arrangements have been made, visual materials
will be published in black and white, and so authors must plan for this when including such
materials. Authors may include graphics, etc., in the text of their submitted manuscript in
the approximate location in which they would like the image to appear, although the final
location and sizing of the image may be altered to conform to the format of the final
document.
Passages of Text with Translations: When including original text in languages other than
English, please provide the original text first with the English translation below, as opposed
to each language side-by-side.
Book and Media Review Format: When submitting a book, CD, exhibition or other media
review, available information may vary greatly. Here are some examples of preferred format:
Joyce E. Hakala, The Rowan Tree: The Lifework of Marjorie Edgar, Girl Scout Pioneer and
Folklorist, with Her Finnish Folk Song Collection “Songs from Metsola.” 2007. St. Paul,
MN: Pikebone Music. xviii + 345 pp., illustrations, appendices, notes, picture sources,
bibliography, index.
J. Karjalainen. Lännen-Jukka: Amerikansuomalaisia Lauluja/ Finnish-American Folksongs.
[Compact Disc]. 2006. Tampere: Jukan Productions Oy/ Poko Records Oy. 39:38 min.
Basic Formats for Common Cited Materials: In APA format, capitalization is vastly
different from that used in other formats. Except for the names of periodical titles, capital
letters are only used for proper names, the first word of a title or subtitle of a work, place
names, and the abbreviated terms for “editor” and “translator.”
