Citing Electronic Sources in Papers

Having trouble figuring out how to cite a Web site or forum posting in your research paper? Let the Library point you in the right direction. The Library Web site contains information and links to the most frequently used style guides such as APA, MLA, Chicago, and Turabian. Here's the link:

The APA guide has great examples of forum and discussion board cites.

Need more help? Hard copies of the style guides are available in all University Libraries locations, along with the aid of an experienced librarian.
