Why Source?
Citing sources correctly allows you to give proper credit to the person who originally gave ideas or facts that are used in your paper and allows the reader to assess the validity of the sources that you use and can further expand on the subject by looking at the sources for themselves.
Cite information, facts, and ideas that are not common knowledge. Use citations in direct quotes or when paraphrasing.
