The point of documenting sources is not to just avoid failing/ getting sent to the principal but also to demonstrate that you know what your project is on
It is also a courtesy to your readers because it helps them to consult the materials you have found

Even if you put something into your own words or “paraphrase” it you still need to cite it
It shows that your ideas are related to those of the experts

7. Chicago style Chicago style uses a bibliography and footnotes
A bibliography is found at the end of the paper/work and lists all the information alphabetically by the author’s last names
A footnote is found within the document, word processing systems will have something for you to click to insert a footnote.

Make sure that you include all the information about the source the first time you cite it
