Elements of Style - Information to collect from your Sources
The pieces of information to cite a source properly change very little from citation style to citation style. If you plan to use a source in your paper, you will need to keep track of :
- Title(s)
- For articles both the Journal Title and Article Title
- For websites both the title of page and title of the webpage
- Authors
- Year
- plus volume and issue number for articles
- Pages
- Publisher for books
- URL (Website Address)
- Your own notes
- Indicate where you found it and why you are going to use it. Write down page numbers for direct quotes.
