Tough references!

These are both available in print, so the print citation format for an entry in a reference book that's part of a series is:

Author, A. A. (date). Title of entry. In A. A. Editor (Ed.), Title of the Series: Vol. X. Volume title (pp. XX-XX). State: Publisher.

The Greenwood Encyclopedia would look like this:

Reddy, D. S. (2003). India. In L. Walter (Series Ed.), The Greenwood Encyclopedia of Women's Issues Worldwide: Vol. 1. Asia and Oceania (pp. 155-188). Westport, CT: Greenwood Press.

CultureGrams doesn't list authors of the entries, so the title of the entry moves to the first position. There is no editor listed, so that part is dropped. It looks like this:

Republic of India. (2009). In CultureGrams: Vol. 4. Asia and Oceania (pp.69-72). Provo, UT: ProQuest.

Don't forget the hanging indent. I can't do that here.

In the text, always use the first and second elements of the reference entry:

Reddy, 2003

Republic of India, 2009.

Hope this helps!
