Why do we use references?
References are
- an acknowledgement of where you got your information
- a signpost to others to find great resources
- evidence of your credibility
- all of the above
You Quote It, You Note It
To start, let's take a look at what plagiarism is, quoting vs paraphrasing, and how to embed quotes and correctly cite your references:
APA Resources
- Look at Source It. Locate how to:
- format a page (i.e., margin, header, spacing, font)
- create an embedded citation (i.e., what information needs to be included)
- consult an example essay (see how to title the last page of your essay)
- Go to APA Citation Maker. Match the source you would use for each of the following items:
- an multi-volume encyclopedia
- a short story
- a print newspaper article
- an article on a website
- a YouTube video
- MLA/APA page on FMSS Library's website
