The Difference Between Logical And Physical Networks

In-Text Citations
The first words of the in-text citation should mirror the first words of the source on the References page.
Remember the following
• Never use the URL in the citation.
• Never use the first or middle initials of the author(s) in the citation.
• Always include the year in the citation.
• Always use p. or pp. for page numbers or para. or ¶ for paragraph numbers with direct quotations.
• Include the author's name or title of the work when no author is listed, year, and page or paragraph number (for a direct quotation) within the parentheses.
• Place the punctuation after the final parenthesis of the citation unless it is a block quote.
• Follow the rule of punctuation for capitalization of the first title mentioned within the reference. Titles of books and articles: capitalize the first word, the first word following a colon, and proper nouns.
The following examples provide information about how to format in-text citations and the corresponding source on the reference page.
