  1. Internal Citations Be wise! Do not plagiarize!

  2. Why use internal citations? • You need to give credit to authors! • Avoid plagiarizing!

  3. When to use citations? • A direct quotation/partial quote: exact repetition of author’s words • All quotations MUST have a lead-in sentence and a follow up sentence. • Use quotation marks for a “short quote” (fewer than 4 lines in your paper)

  4. Following the quotation, type the author’s name and page number in parentheses. The period FOLLOWS the parentheses in a short quote. • Example (Smith 5). • Long quotations: 4 or more lines of typed text. • Indent each line two tabs, place a period after the passage. Type the author’s name and page number in ( )

  5. GUIDELINES • In parentheses: author followed by page number • PERIOD COMES AFTER THE PARENTHESES: • (Smith 3).

  6. If no page number is given: • (Smith n.pag.). • If no author is given, use the first important word in the title: • (“The Hindenburg” 803). • If titles are similar or the same, use key words:(“The Hindenburg Disaster” 579).

  7. When stating the author’s name in paraphrase or quote, you DO NOT need to include the author’s name inside of the parentheses: • Sischy stated that Coco Chanel was not just ahead of her time, she was ahead of herself (166).

  8. When stating the author’s name in paraphrase or quote, you DO NOT need to include the author’s name inside of the parentheses: • Sischy stated that Coco Chanel was not just ahead of her time, she was ahead of herself (166).

  9. If you have an author of more than one source, use a key word from the title: • (Jones Flight 150).

  10. If you are using the same source within the same paragraph, simply include the page number: • Chanel could not afford the styles of her time, so she created and wore her own designs (Sischy 1). The loose-fitting sweater was one of Chanel’s first accomplishments (2).

  11. If sources have the same title, “Scottsboro Trial,” you need to include part of the source title: • (“Scottsboro Trial”The New York Times 7).

  12. Periods ALWAYS come after the parentheses, unless it is an extended quote.
