When is a topological group Hausdorff (separated)?

Does someone knows a good reference for the following result?

"A topological group is Hausdorff if and only if the identity is closed."

I have seen proofs in lecture notes of courses on the web, but I would like a reference in a book or an article, in order to refer to it.
