How do I cite a source such as a book, article, or website?
Answer
Resources available:
- Citation FAQ for examples and explanations on citing specific types of resources
- College Writing Guide: Citing Sources for resources and overviews
- OWL Purdue for general guidance
- Tutoring and Writing Center website for how to meet with a Learning Assistant
Remember to:
Determine what citation format your professor wants you to use. Professors will generally make that information clear in the class syllabus, in the description of an assignment, or through some other announcement. Different academic disciplines use different citation formats, so it is important to know which one you are going to use.
