Style manuals and citing web sources:
Manuals of style show how to write papers and how to cite sources.
The staff at the
Quality Writing Center
can help you edit your papers.
We have several popular style manuals in Mullins Library's Reference collection,
such as:
-
"MLA"-- MLA Style Manual (PN 147 .A28 )
-
"APA"-- Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association
(BF 76.7 .P83)
-
"Chicago"-- Chicago Manual of Style (Z 253 .U69)
-
"Turabian"-- A Manual for Writers of Term Papers, Theses, and Dissertations
(LB 2369 .T8)
The web links below offer brief citation style information. For
more depth, use one of the appropriate manuals, above. Page numbers
in web documents vary from browser to browser and printer to printer, so
they are usually not cited.
