MHCA 5603 - Population Health: Writing & Citing

Citing Sources

The primary reasons for citing sources in a research paper are to give credit to the authors whose work you have drawn upon and to allow readers to track down your sources, should they wish to do so.

There are many style guides for formatting citations and creating bibliographies.  Turabian (a simplified version of Chicago) is frequently used, but you may be called upon to use others.

See the box at the right for tools to help you format citations and bibliographies.

For other assistance, please visit the UAFS Writing Center.  The Writing Center is a part of the Academic Success Center and is located in the Vines Building, Room 202. Check hours of availability.
