Several
handbooks are available that provide details on how to cite sources in
a variety of styles, including Andrea Lundsford's Everyday Writer, MLA, APA, and Chicago style handbooks. These manuals are available both at the library reference desk and at the Writing Center (Confer 232). See also Research and Documentation Online.
Note
that both APA and MLA manuals have recently been revised; not all
handbooks reflect these changes and not all instructors have adopted
them. When in doubt, ask your instructor which edition s/he prefers.
The online resources below may also be helpful as you document your sources.

The library also provides access to a citation management program called RefWorks.
To use this program, create a personal account, then download or enter
citations. You can print your citations in a wide variety of styles.
Learn more about RefWorks.
Access to EndNote Web
comes with the library's subscriptions to Web of Science. To use this
citation management software, create a personal account while you are
on campus, then download or enter citations. If you already use EndNote
software on your personal computer, you can transfer references
seamlessly between it and EndNote Web. See the EndNote Web tutorials for more information.
