APA & MLA

CITING YOUR SOURCES:
In your researches and assignments, you must give credit by citing all your sources. This includes information directly quoted as well as paraphrased. The only exception to this is commonly known facts.
Your goal is to provide your readers information about the sources so they can find them. Failure to properly cite your sources is plagiarism.


TWO major citation styles:
*      APA- American Psychological Association
o   This citation style is used in social and behavioral sciences papers (such as psychology papers)
*      MLA- Modern Language Association
o   This citation style is used mainly in the humanities
