Citation tools are a very useful feature of OneSearch, library databases and online journals. Look out for the quotation marks symbol " or CITE. When you click into these you get the option of copying the citation for the article or book in a number of the most popular styles.

Always check that the citation conforms to what is required by your lecturer and/or the official style guide, as there can be mistakes or may be using a different edition of the style guidelines.

Citation Generators are freely available on the Internet - they allow you to generate references automatically. Basic level access is usually free, however, higher level service & access is subscription based.
