How to format your references using the Tourism Management citation style

This is a short guide how to format citations and the bibliography in a manuscript for Tourism Management. For a complete guide how to prepare your manuscript refer to the journal's instructions to authors.

Using reference management software

Typically you don't format your citations and bibliography by hand. The easiest way is to use a reference manager:

PaperpileThe citation style is built in and you can choose it in Settings > Citation Style or Paperpile > Citation Style in Google Docs.
EndNoteDownload the output style file
Mendeley, Zotero, Papers, and othersThe style is either built in or you can download a CSL file that is supported by most reference managers.
BibTeXBibTeX styles are usually part of a LaTeX template. Check the instructions to authors if the publisher offers a LaTeX template for this journal.

Journal articles

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

A journal article with 1 author
van Woesik, R. (2004). Comment on “Coral reef death during the 1997 Indian Ocean dipole linked to Indonesian wildfires.” Science (New York, N.Y.), 303(5662), 1297; author reply 1297.
A journal article with 2 authors
Canfield, D. E., & Kump, L. R. (2013). Geochemistry. Carbon cycle makeover. Science (New York, N.Y.), 339(6119), 533–534.
A journal article with 3 authors
Kassen, R., Llewellyn, M., & Rainey, P. B. (2004). Ecological constraints on diversification in a model adaptive radiation. Nature, 431(7011), 984–988.
A journal article with 21 or more authors

Web sites

Sometimes references to web sites should appear directly in the text rather than in the bibliography. Refer to the Instructions to authors for Tourism Management.

Blog post

Reports

This example shows the general structure used for government reports, technical reports, and scientific reports. If you can't locate the report number then it might be better to cite the report as a book. For reports it is usually not individual people that are credited as authors, but a governmental department or agency like "U. S. Food and Drug Administration" or "National Cancer Institute".

Government report
Government Accountability Office. (2003). Applying Agreed-Upon Procedures: Airport and Airway Trust Fund Excise Taxes (GAO-03-361R). U.S. Government Printing Office.

Theses and dissertations

Theses including Ph.D. dissertations, Master's theses or Bachelor theses follow the basic format outlined below.

Doctoral dissertation
Trahan, M. W. (2015). Large-scale 20th Century Warming Identified in the East Siberian Arctic Using Tree-ring Carbon Isotope Records [Doctoral dissertation]. University of Louisiana.

News paper articles

Unlike scholarly journals, news papers do not usually have a volume and issue number. Instead, the full date and page number is required for a correct reference.

New York Times article
Saslow, L. (2006, September 24). Amid Concerns, Counties Move to Limit Taxes. New York Times, 14LI2.

In-text citations

References should be cited in the text by name and year in parentheses:

This sentence cites one reference (van Woesik, 2004).
This sentence cites two references (Canfield & Kump, 2013; van Woesik, 2004).

Here are examples of in-text citations with multiple authors:

  • Two authors: (Canfield & Kump, 2013)
  • Three or more authors: (Gill et al., 2002)
