Citing Your Sources

What is a Citation?

When you do research on a topic for a report, you are gathering information from other people's work.

​

Therefore, it is important to give credit to the author whose words or ideas you are using.

You do this by citing the source.​

​

Plagiarism

If you copy information from a source without citing it, this is called plagiarism.

​

Claiming someone else's work as your own is like stealing - it is unethical and illegal!

This tool will assist you in creating citations for resources used during a project.   Citations resources include books, webpages, videos/film, journals, databases, and more.​
