How do you format a list of publications in a resume?

Answer 1

Step 1 List all names under which you have written. Having these names on hand makes it easier for potential employers to verify your work. Step 2 List publications in chronological order with the most recent work first and the rest following in descending order. Step 3 Establish the type of publication first. Use brackets to denote the different types of publications or projects. For example, editing projects, layout/design projects, articles, poetry. Step 4 Include the complete title of the publication. Do not use abbreviations. List the complete title of the article. If the article is one in a series, indicate this by stating where it falls in the series (i.e.: part 1, 2, 3, etc ... ) and the name of the series. Step 5 Include issue and volume numbers of articles that have appeared in periodicals or magazines. After the type of publication (ie: article, review, editorial, etc ...), list the name of publication, issue/volume number(s), page number(s) and date of publication. Step 6 State the full web address for publications that have appeared online. Be sure to update the address in the event that it changes. Step 7 Use quotation marks to set off titles of articles, short stories and poetry. Underline book titles. Use italics to set off newspaper, magazine and newsletter titles.

Answer 2

List your publications in reverse chronological order, starting with the most recent one. Include the title of the publication, the name of the journal or conference, the publication date, and any relevant co-authors. You can also include a brief description of your contribution if space allows.
