The changes made to produce the +mslapa format were originally made by Michael S. Landy in 1995 and are +public domain. The copyright and licensing of the file as a whole also +depends on the copyright and licensing of the original code. +This statement added 2008/11/25 by Clea F. Rees in an attempt to make the +situation a little clearer following communication with Michael S. Landy. + +This directory contains my version of LaTeX and BibTeX style files for a +respectably close approximation to APA (American Psychological Association) +citation and reference style. This version is based on things found in the +attempts of others at an APA-like style (including the files apalike, newapa, +and apabst). However, I have added several features beyond those to be found +in the previous styles. I also include an example file to show how the style +is used. To run off the example, on UNIX you would type something like: + + latex examp ; bibtex examp ; latex examp ; latex examp ; dvips examp + +To install this style, you should move `mslapa.bst' to the place your +installation keeps BibTeX style files and `mslapa.sty' to the place your +installation keeps LaTeX style files. + +If you have requests, bugs, bug fixes, or any other needs, don't hesitate to +contact me. + +Michael S.
