The Libraries provide many different style manuals for you to use. To be positive
you're using the correct one, talk to your instructor to determine his/her
preferred citation format before you start your research paper. You can find
copies of style manuals in the reference collections of the University Libraries.
In addition, the libraries provide access to numerous online guides to citation
style.
