Citing sources is an important part of your research.
It documents what sources you have used in writing your paper, gives credit to the author's work, and gives the information needed to identify and retrieve the cited sources.
For a quick introduction and overview to citing and citation managers, the library has created the following video:
Citing and Citation Management: Tips and Tricks from Queen's University Library
Different disciplines or courses use different citation styles, so confirm with your instructor which style you should use.
APA Style (American Psychological Association)
Vancouver Style
Always cite materials or output generated from an AI tool in your assignment, journal article, etc. However, do not refer to the AI tool as the author of that material or output.
Refer to the Style Guide (e.g., APA, MLA, IEEE, etc.) for the proper formatting of citations for AI tools and AI generated materials.
A summary of these formats can be found in the Artificial Intelligence Guide.
There are many different citation managers available for your use including Zotero, Mendeley, and EndNote.
Please note: Queen's University now how has a site license for EndNote desktop.
For more detailed information please consult the LibGuides: Citing and Citation Management and Citing and Citation Managers.
