Some Notes About Citing Sources

We all learned in school that we should cite sources for information that isn’t “common knowledge.” But this is not as straightforward as it sounds. Dartmouth College’s Web site contains a good and useful discussion of when to cite.

And, of course, remember to cite your sources in an accepted format, such as U.S.G.S., Chicago Manual of Style, APA, etc. (use the JA format for technical reports).
