Citations

Please be careful about using citation machines, either through Word or online. Many of them only work for basic sources—books with one author, standard articles—and even then, they get close, but are not 100%, and require you to know some of the formatting in order to fill in the information. This is especially true with APA; I have yet to find one that works correctly. (If you know of one, please email the link to bferry@ghc.edu.) Many are now outdated, as both APA and MLA updated in fall 2009. Always be able to double-check the format yourself.
