Consistent style makes reading and fact checking easier.
Ability for readers of your work to find more material on the topic.

Insure that the work is your own.

Citation guides at Santa Fe
A Librarian at Santa Fe College has created an easy-to-use guide for creating APA style citations.
The APA guide shows you how to create citations for almost any resource you may use in your bibliography:
• Print Materials (books, maps, magazines, scripts, etc.)
• Electronic Materials (online articles, webpages, etc.)
• Media and other resources (YouTube, DVDs etc.)

APA References Page = List of sources of information used in paper

paraphraseCalled an “In-Text Citation”
