LEAP 6 Formal Presentation Project

Citing Your Sources

When you use another person's words or ideas in an academic assignment, it's important to cite your source.

Citing gives credit to the author, strengthens your arguments, and makes it easier for your reader (or audience) to locate the original source. 

The LEAP Program uses APA style for citation. Visit Langara Library's APA Style Citation Guide (linked below) for helpful examples of citations for articles, books, media, websites and more.
