Citing Sources

Citing sources can be stressful because there is specific formatting, it is important to do for academic integrity, and it is not intuitive. However, Boston College Libraries have many tools that will help you with your citations.

Zotero not only will help you with your citations and bibliography, but it will also help you save your sources for easy referral later. It is important to remember that Zotero or any citation manager will only work as well as the information you put into it allows it to. You will need to know what a citation should look like if you are going to effectively use a citation manager. 

Check out the Citing Sources Guide for detailed information about citing.

And you can always ask me if you have any questions!
