Citing Sources

Why do I need to cite my sources?

When you cite…

  • readers (your professor, for example) know where the evidence supporting your argument came from.
  • original ideas you present have more weight because you did your research!

Not sure where to start?

Our Cite My Sources guide provides an overview of the basics and shows how to format commonly used sources in MLA, APA, Chicago, Turabian, and APSA.
