Parenthetical notation How to cite your material within your paper
Example with author’s name in text: If the source is incorporated into the text you’ve written (first example), write just the page number. If not, include in the parenthetical notation. Bizjak argues this point (12 -13). or This point had already been argued (Bizjak 12 -13).
Citing source when two or more sources have same last name: You may use first initial if it distinguishes the different author; otherwise, use full name. In the examples below, this assumes there is another source named Johnson, and the “J. ” or “John” distinguishes one Johnson from the other. (T. Bizjak 12 -13). or (Tony Bizjak 12 -13).
Citing source with two or more authors: (Bollag and Beasley 45).
Citing source where no author is listed: This might be common with internet sources. With prices of energy at new highs, bikes have been increasingly used (“For Most on Everest”).
Citing source when using only one chapter in a book: This is NOT a common occurrence. This refers to books where each new chapter is a different author, where for example a book might be a collection of essays by different people. The Electoral College is a necessary function (Philbrick, The Last Stand).
Citing multiple works by the same author: Use this when you have multiple sources all from the same author. Wars can be economic catalysts (Krakauer, Into the Wild, 225). Industrialized nations are better equipped to rebound from recessions (Krakauer, Into Thin Air, 184).
Citing indirect source: Many of you may have sources like this. Generally, these ARE NOT GOOD SOURCES, but since some of you will have these in your papers, you need to know how to cite it. In this example, you are taking a quote that appears AS a quote in your source material. John Murray calls Tim Smith “interesting but egotistical” (qtd. in Jesrani 34).
