• Citation Styles, Style Guides, and Avoiding Plagiarism

  "How do you cite sources? The means to identify sources is to provide citations within your text linking appropriate passages to relevant resources consulted or quoted. This can be done through in-text parenthetic notes, footnotes, or endnotes. In addition, a bibliography or list of works cited, is almost always placed at the end of your paper. The citation system and format you use will be determined by the citation style you choose. "

• Authenticating Web Pages as Evidence

  "As you approach the witness with printouts of the web pages, you are stopped in your tracks: "Objection, lack of foundation." "
