Ask A LibrarianSome instructors require students to do an abstract for their paper. An abstract is a brief, though comprehensive summary of your paper. Typically, abstracts are limited to 250 words, and they always go before the actual paper.
Example:
1. Arranges your pages in the following order:
2. Make sure to choose a standard typeface, such as Times New Roman, and a standard font size, such as 11 or 12 point font.
3. Always evenly double space your paper.
4. Indent every first line of a new paragraph by pressing tab.
5. The title page information should always be centered.
