Citing Your Sources

Have you tried the Landmarks Citation Machine  ?
It automatically formats your citations into both APA and MLA format!

For heavier lifting, so to speak, you may prefer the new tool called Refworks ,
which allows you to create on online account and put your found citations from each
database (like PsycInfo, InfoTrac, or ERIC ) into folders by topic--
then format them in APA style for your paper's bibliography.

The VCU Honor System requires citing your sources,
whether they be books, journal articles, web pages, e-mail communications,
or articles printed out from online databases like InfoTrac Onefile.

VCU's Education professors prefer that you use the APA
(American Psychological Association)
format in doing footnotes and bibliography entries.
The APA Style Manual shows how.

Other style manuals on the web can be found at the
Citation Styles and Guides web page .
