7. Bibliography Bibliography Example: Markel, Howard. "The Real Story Behind Penicillin." PBS Newshour. PBS, 27 Sept. 2013. Web. 02 May 2016.. ____________________________________________________________________________________ In-text citation Example- two different styles of in-text citations: Style (1) The discovery of penicillin changed the way doctors treated patients for infections and diseases. Severely injured limbs may be saved with penicillin rather than being amputated (Markel). Style (2) w/photo and caption This is the penicillin table in a U.S. evacuation hospital in Luxembourg in 1945. Photo by Photo12/UIG. The discovery of penicillin changed the way doctors treated patients for infections and diseases. Severely injured limbs may be saved with penicillin instead of being amputated. (Markel) Both in-text examples above are from the same article so it works fine to cite at bottom of slide.
