Citing Electronic Resources


Citing an Internet resource is almost the same as citing a book or periodical. There are different rules for different types of citations, depending on whether you follow the MLA, APA, CSE guidelines or other authoritative style manual. Electronic resources vary, e.g., web pages, live chat, listserves, etc. and each type is cited differently. What they all have in common is that your citation must provide the date you accessed the information.

Some useful sources for electronic citation formats:

- APA Citations Electronic Media-Internet

- MLA Citation Style

- Purdue Online Writing Lab: Documenting Sources

- A Research Guide for Students
