APA FAQs
How do I cite a source that has no listed author?
Check if there is an organisation or corporate author to list in place of an individual, such as the BBC or MIND.
If there is no author or organisation to which the source can be attributed, use the title of the source in place of the author. For example:
Merriam-Webster’s collegiate dictionary (10th ed.). (1993). Merriam-Webster.
What do I do if there is no published date available?
If there is no date available, for example on a website, then use (n.d.) where you would usually put the date. For example:
MIND (n.d.). Mental health act reforms. https://www.mind.org.uk/about-us/our-policy-work/mental-health-act-reform/
