What is the procedure and format for citing web pages in reports and presentations?

Does your teacher insist on MLA or APA citations?  Does the journal you are writing for mandate CBE style?  When citing any resource for research-based work, you must use the citation style your audience demands.  There are many popular citation styles.  The IMSA Citation Wizard automates basic citation formatting for electronic resources in five popular styles:

  • American Psychological Association APA Style
  • Council of Biology Editors CBE Style
  • Chicago Style
  • International Organization for Standardization ISO Style
  • Modern Language Association MLA Style

When using the Citation Wizard, just fill in the text boxes with as much of the requested information as you can find.
