When doing research and writing up your papers, we need to build our evidence and give credit to where our information comes from. Most assignments require this, plus it helps you and your readers find your sources again.
Most library tools, like databases, include features that generate a citation in the most popular citation styles. These automatic citations can include minor stylistic errors, but they typically do a good job of pulling out the key information you need to make a citation. Double-check all your citations, especially those that are auto-generated.
Most library tools, like Quick Search and our databases, can create citations that you can copy and paste into your papers.
These tools are auto-generated, so check them for accuracy. Additionally, they don't always have the latest versions of the citation styles.
