How to Cite It
Say you want to cite this passage:
Ishimoto writes, “It was after sunset when
we ended the day’s trip with its excitement and joy. Old-fashioned kerosene
lamps lighted the mountain inns along the river.”(From Shidzue Ishimoto, Facing
Two Ways: The Story of My Life, p. 89)
For an indirect quote rephrase what the
author said in your own words. You still have to cite the text (author, page)
because you are using the author’s ideas, but you don’t have to use quotation
marks. Easy!
For a direct quote: You must use a
citation AND quotation marks. Your citation can be an in-text citation as in
(Author, page) or you can use a footnote -choose the one you like best. When
you use a direct quote, you should explain what the quote means in your own
words before or after the quote. And last but not least… note that when you
quote something, you must preface the quote with a short phrase.
TO CITE AN ONLINE SOURCE(please use
educational websites such as library, museum and university sites!): AUTHOR +
TITLE + DATE ACCESSED + WEBSITE, as below:
