SOME TIPS

• Remember to cite your source, when either quoting directly or paraphrasing. In other words, cite your source whenever you present an idea that isn't your own.
• Websites must be cited in your notes/bibliography, too; if you cut and paste - or paraphrase - from a website, cite the webpage.
• When in doubt, cite your source.

• Connect to online versions of Turabian, APA, MLA Style Guide, etc. from this page: Citation Guides & Style Manuals
• Or use services that will automatically build your citation in APA style:

  Citation Builder (NC State)
  
  Citation Machine  - APA Format
  Citation Machine - APA In-text Format
