Incorporate publisher information when citing complete books to properly attribute the source. This inclusion is both standard practice and feasible in academic writing. Publisher details are typically included after the title of the book, separated by commas. Key citation styles like APA, MLA, and Chicago all require the publisher's name alongside the publication location (especially in Chicago). Crucially, publisher information is omitted for articles from journals or chapters within edited volumes; the container source (journal or book title) and its publisher suffice. Always follow the specific style guide mandated by the publication or institution. Consistency across all citations is essential. To implement this in a reference list, provide the publisher's name immediately after the book title. For example, in APA: "Author, A. A. (Year). *Title of book*. Publisher Name." In Chicago notes/bibliography: "Author, First Name. *Book Title*. Place of Publication: Publisher, Year." For a chapter in an edited book, cite the editors and book title/publisher, not the original chapter author's publisher.
