1. IN-TEXT CITATIONS
You have to credit each source you use at the end of the sentence or sentences in which it appears.
Because this information appears in parentheses, it is called parenthetical documentation.
It usually consists of the author’s last name and a page number (Murphy, 8).
Here are some exceptions:
Website: Because a website has no page number, use only the author’s name (Murphy). If the site does not credit an author, use the short form of the title, (“Bullying”)
Author named in sentence: Use only the page number.
More than one source for a single idea: List both sources and separate them with a semicolon. (“Shiloh”; Murphy, 8)
