When you find a book or an article in the library catalog or in a database, look for an option for the citation. It may be called cite, citation, citation tools, or something similar. It comes in multiple formats as well -- MLA, APA, Chicago, and others. Citations for print books are also available in the library catalog.  Find more help on our citation guide.
