Citation Tools

We all know to give credit where credit is due, but some of us may be unsure of how to do so. Citing sources can be an easier process when you have some basic knowledge and some helpful tools. We have created a brief video covering the basics of citation including avoiding plagiarism, formatting citations, and finding the citation information needed for different types of sources.

We’d like to suggest two convenient citation tools to help you organize your sources; both tools help you compile a list of sources, format them into a bibliography for any citation style, and create in-text references or footnotes within your paper.

• RefWorks is available for students, faculty, staff, and alumni through our website. Learn more about using RefWorks.
• EndNote Web is available for students, faculty, and staff. Learn more about using EndNote Web.

For further assistance with these tools or with other research issues, ask us; Research and Instruction Librarians are available to help.
