Use the down arrow on the tab for this page (Get Citations in Databases) to navigate to sub-tabs for various databases. Each database has similar, but slightly different, methods for generating and collecting citations, along with the content or articles you find. Some databases have limitations you need to know about. Librarians have tested the various options offered in the different databases. These sub-tabs show you the easiest way to get all the information your need for your citations. There's a page of instructions for each of these databases:
Word processing software, library databases, and many online resources, apps, and tools, offer automatic citation formatting. However, these systems are NOT ALWAYS ACCURATE and sometimes do not allow you to include all of the important elements. While you may use these tools, it is important to double check their accuracy with one of the more reliable guides and shortcut tools.The library's NoodleTools app will create correct citations if you follow the instructions.
