Citing Your Sources
(covers APA and MLA Style Manuals)


Every professor expects every student to be well versed in the particular style manual used in each discipline, but it's not always easy to figure out what and when to cite. Librarians leading this workshop are experts and will help simplify the process of creating bibliographies for your papers. They will also stress how to avoid plagiarism. Both APA and MLA have released new editions so you need to come learn how to deal with all the new rules.
