Citing and References for a Paper

Microsoft Office Word (I’m using 2007) has everything you need under References (GEM #5).

Place the cursor where you need to site a reference. 

Click References. Look at Citations & Bibliography.

Choose the style required by your instructor (MLA, APA, etc.).

Click on Insert Citation. You can choose Placeholder and add the info later.

To add the reference information [later], click Manage Sources.

 Fill in the form. Unbelievably easy.
