Your teacher should tell you what citation style you need to use.  Examples are MLA, APA, and Turabian.  From the Library Web Page (http://www.mchenry.edu/library), click on Research Guidance and then on Research Guides.  Select the English Research Guide.  Click on the yellow folder tab at the top of the page that says Citing Sources.  Here you will find tools to use to cite your source as well as handouts with example of how to cite different types of sources in different citation styles.

Purdue OWL is an excellent and scholarly site to consult as well . . . http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/section/2/ 

Hope this helps!  Have a great weekend.
