Citing your sources

Databases like Britannica Encyclopedia will give you the citation. In this libguide, I have told you where to find the citation on a database, or given you the citation to copy if it is not easily available. 

Make a list of all of your sources, and sort them alphabetically. Leave a double space between each citation and give it the title, "Bibliography."
