Citing sources
Citing your sources is important for two reasons:
- To properly attribute the words and ideas of others (and to avoid accusations of plagiarism);
- To allow the reader to find the source for herself.
Simply providing a URL to an online source is not enough, because URLs often change and content gets moved. These resources will help you to collect citation information and format it in your paper.
