Source Citation

At the bottom of each full-text article you will find a "Source Citation."  These citations provide available publication data for the document cited and should serve only as a guide and not as a replacement for the latest style manual recommendations or those required by your instructor.  Consult your instructor for specific bibliographic style preferences required of your written work.  Below is an example of a short full-text article and the accompanying source citation at the bottom.
