For a quick introduction and overview to citing and citation managers, please refer to the following:
Throughout the research process it is important for you to keep track of the information you used by citing your sources. Citing sources:
Many of the electronic databases you will be using (including Omni) offer you the option to download, print or email the citations to the material you find. This is a great way to keep track of the information you're considering.
Citation managers help you collect, organize, cite and share references and sources (e.g. full-text articles).
There are many different citation managers available for your use including Zotero, Mendeley, and EndNote.
For more detailed information please consult, Queen's Library guide to citation managers.
Citation styles are a set of rules or standards established by a specific society, association, or publisher for documenting various sources of information.
APA (American Psychological Association) is the preferred style of documentation for HLTH 402. Check out these sites for information on citing sources using APA:
