ENV 42C1: Environmental Capstone (King): Citing Articles

Citing an Article

This tutorial (http://researchguides.baylor.edu/readacitation) will help you understand the purpose of citations and the information that is needed in a citation.

This webpage (http://researchguides.baylor.edu/citingsources) lists quickguides to the major citation formats.

Make sure you use the citation style suggested by your instructor.  Even though you are retrieving the article from a website, you still need to include the author, date, article title, journal, volume/issue, and page numbers of the article.  When applicable you should also include the DOI and/or website. 

Organizing Articles

You may wish to consider using bibliographic or citation manager to organize your articles. These programs not only offer away to organize the articles you find by allowing you to put them in folder and label them with key words and take notes on the articles, but they also allow you to export your references directly to your word processor in the correct format you need.
