How do I cite a book on my Kindle?

From The Chronicle of Higher Education: E-Books' Varied Formats Make Citations a Mess for Scholars
"The trouble is that in electronic formats, there are no fixed pages. The Kindle, developed by Amazon, does away with page numbers entirely. Along with other e-book readers, the Kindle allows users to change font style and size, so the number of words on a screen can vary. Instead of pages, it uses "location numbers" that relate to a specific part of a book."

Theresa Bell in the RRU Writing Centre can help with any citation questions.
