Question: How do I cite sources in my paper?

Answer


Different disciplines and publications use different styles for their citations and reference lists.  For help on figuring out the style you might need and how to apply it you can go to the Citation Style Guide.

If this is for a class project, you will want to ask your professor what style you should use. If it is for an article you're submitting to a journal, you can usually find their specifications listed on their website with their information for authors.
