Use pp. if information comes from a range of pages.

  15. Answers to FAQ: If you are quoting directly from a written source, add a page number after the publisher (e.g. p. 156). If there is more than one page you turn the p. into a pp. (e.g. pp. 156-157) If there is more than one author, you need to include all of their names in alphabetical order (e.g. Darling, D., McAllister, B. & Suter, J.) If you are handwriting your reference, you may underline the title, rather than writing in italics Website authors may be a corporation (ie The Australian War Memorial rather than a specific person) If there is no date that the website was created/modified, substitute the date with (n.d.)
