Information Skills - Cite Your Sources

Did you use a library database to conduct your research?  If so, the database probably has a cite tool to get you started on your reference list.  Have questions about these database features?  Ask a librarian for assistance.

Understanding APA Basics

APA is an author-date citation system.  This means that only the author and date are included in the text of your paper. Additional details for the source, including the title and retrieval information, are included on the References page.
