**This is what a reference page looks like. Remember, you will still double space, you will still use 12 point font. The only difference is that you will alphabetize the References by the first line and you will use “hanging indent” for the second lines. To use “hanging indent”, you will move the bottom of the ruler to the .5 space (the larger line between 0 and 1). The top of the ruler stays at zero.
