Why Cite?
One of the most important reasons to cite your sources is to avoid plagiarism. Citing your sources is a standard academic practice that helps your reader find the resources you used to write your paper. It provides evidence to support your work and improves your credibility.
Different majors/disciplines have different citation styles that they require- your instructor should let you know which style is required for your course or project.
Librarians & library staff are here to help you with your citation questions, or you can check out one of the citation style manuals that the library has, or look up some basic citation examples here on our website. You can also use RefWorks to store your citations and help you create your bibliography. |
