How to Cite an Article from InfoTrac

The following are examples of two styles for the way citations from InfoTrac should appear in a bibliography. Keep in mind that there are other styles (Chicago and CEBA being two notable ones). Also keep in mind that double spacing and underlining rather than italics might both be preferred. Always check with your professor or editor for style preferences.

Whichever style is used, a citation from InfoTrac will generally contain the following:
