    Distance learner hear having major trouble referencing my very first essay. I'm using APA referencing style and would appreciate any help or advice you guys can offer. I have included many quotes and after each quote I've also included (Author, Year, Page Number).

    "BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH" (Hayes, 2004, p.204)

    Very easy so far. The tricky part is in the bibliography at the end of the essay. Do I need to include Page again numbers when I reference the book here:

    Bibliography:

    Hayes, J. (2004). Interpersonal Skills at Work (2nd Ed.). Sussex: Routledge Publishing Ltd.

    OR SHOULD IT BE?

    Hayes, J. (2004). Interpersonal Skills at Work (2nd Ed.). (pp. 113-120)Sussex: Routledge Publishing Ltd.

    If anyone could clear this up I'll buy them a drink!!! Starting to panic
