Citing Sources
Whenever you are quoting or using information from a source, you must credit or cite that source. Failure to do so is plagiarism which can lead to expulsion from the University. APA and Chicago are two formats for citation. The following links provide information on how to use either APA or Chicago.
RefWorks
RefWorks is an online research management tool that allows users to create personal bibliographic databases and use them for a variety of research activities.
