The following are only a few of the many websites that provide support and examples for a variety of citation styles. Note: your instructor may have their own specific preferences.

Online citation generators will create citations for you, usually in two ways:

• Look up a source (article, book, etc.), choose a citation style, get the citation
• Fill in a form with details about the source, choose a citation style, get the citation 

These tools can save you time, but it is important to check for errors and missing information. 

• Most Library databases have a Cite option. Find a source, then look for a button or link to create a citation.
• In Microsoft Word, you can add citations using the References tab.
