  3. How does it work? • When you use someone else’s words in your essays you need to show that they belong to someone else by putting quotation marks around them and referencing at the end. • EXAMPLE: During World War II Jewish people experienced widespread discrimination. “If one’s parents were born Jewish, one was classified as a Jew,”(Dick, 2007, p.5).

At the End • At the end of your essay you need to have a bibliography. • This needs to list every book or website you used for research. • On this page, your list has to be in alphabetical order by the author’s last name.
