Many companies have important statistical data mentioned on their websites as their press release. How will I cite it in text and mention in bibliogarphy for thesis writing?
e.g.
http://www.indiaretailing.com/2016/02/19/food/food-grocery/gluten-free-the-big-specialty-food-opportunity/
https://www.marketsandmarkets.com/PressReleases/gluten-free-products.asp
Thanks and regards!
another example:
https://www.perkinelmer.com/CMSResources/Images/44-74542GDE_DSCBeginnersGuide.pdf
I have taken this extract from page 5 of the Journal of Food Science's Author Guidelines at http://www.ift.org/~/media/Knowledge%20Center/Publications/JFSAuthorGuidelines2015.pdf
" Web sites and other internet material: Organization or publisher. Year (if relevant). Title or webpage or database. Edition (if relevant). URL. Accessed year month date. Example: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. 2004. Review of the State of World Marine Fisheries Resources. General situation of world fish stocks. Available from: http://www.fao.org/newsroom/common/ecg/1000505/en/stocks.pdf. Accessed 2012 March 3. "
In your text you will cite the organisation's web site at the beginning or end of a sentence differently:
FAO (2004) data shows ...
OR
... in the data (FAO 2004).
If the date is not obvious, use n.d. in place of the year to show that the document is not dated.
I mostly use APA Style. You can find explanation for citing every kind of a source for your publication. This specific here: http://blog.apastyle.org/apastyle/2010/09/how-to-cite-a-press-release-in-apa-style.html
For other sources I mostly go to Google Scholar and type title if it finds it you can select Cite - APA Style citing and get the full reference
Hello,
In addition to the previously stated valuable comments, software tools such as the EndNote will help to auto cite any kind of publications. The EndNote, for example, contains a list of various types of publications, and a form that you need to fill using the required data for correct citation. Afterward, the EndNote will display the citation based on the style of your choice. There are huge number of available styles.
For more info, you may refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EndNote
