It can be challenging to determine how to cite an electronic information source. Use these citation style guides to establish good practices.

(note - this box is currently under development - CES, 08/23/08).

Whenever you quote, paraphrase, summarize, or use another person's work, you have to give them appropriate credit. Using one's work without giving due credit is plagarism. Citation manuals are also available at the Reference Desk. Click on the arrrow under Citation Styles to access these styles:

• APA
• MLA
  
• Chicago
• Turabian

if you invest 30-45 minutes to learn how to use RefWorks,
you can save yourself dozens of hours over the course of your academic studies!

Refworks is a powerful citation manager that allows you to store citations in a personal database. The citations can be input in by hand or downloaded directly from most of the library's databases. You can then export citations directly into a paper you are writing, creating both in-line citations and a bibliography in most citation styles, including MLA, APA, and Chicago.

Citations are stored remotely and can be accessed from any computer connected to the Internet. You need to create a login ID and password to set up an account. If you are creating an account from off campus, you will need our subscriber group code, which is kirkpatrick.

It is also possible to import and export records with bibliographic managment software, such as Procite or Endnote.
