2. Create Space  How can I cite a CreateSpace book? How can I cite a CreateSpace book?  If I needed to put a citation in a book, this would be the simplest, MLA style, citation:   Hocking, Amanda. "Fate: My Blood Approves." Charleston: CreateSpace, 2010.   That is the bibliographic information, and proper form. I asked customer support: If were to put that citation in a book to be printed by CreateSpace, this is their answer:   After checking with my supervisor, we have determined that your choice of listing CreateSpace is like referencing us as the publisher, which we do not allow since we are a self-publishing platform. However, should you wish to include "Printed by CreateSpace" please feel free to do so. We thank you in advance for your understanding. [Sonya, CreateSpace Support, 02.18]
