You may be wondering - what is included in a citation?

  • Author
  • Title of source
  • Title of container
  • Other contributors
  • Version
  • Number
  • Publisher
  • Publication date
  • Location

So, how do you organize all of that information to ensure you're giving credit to the author(s)?

For online resources, we recommend: 

Purdue Online Writing Lab - Chicago

The Chicago Manual of Style Online

Remember - this to get started, you do not want to copy and paste! It is a tool to help you build the bones of your citation - always edit before turning your work in!
