Quotations Borrowed ideas presented in the exact language of the source. Must be enclosed in quotation marks Use the source’s words, punctuation, spacing, etc. exactly as they appear in the source (unless indicated with ellipsis points or brackets)

Essay 2 Requirements Use at least three quotations from your sources.
No more than about 15% of your essay may be quotations (about four full quoted lines per page). Be selective: Save quotations for important and/or well-written material. Recognize that quotations don’t have to be lengthy. Short quotations, even phrases, can work well.

Integrating Quotations Correctly
Introduce the quotation Use a short phrase with a comma Use a full sentence with a colon Combine with your own sentence with no additional punctuation Include the writer’s last name in the introduction to the quotation or in the parentheses at the end. Include the page number (if there is one) in parentheses at the end of the quotation. Place the final period after the parentheses.
