Did You Know? Citing Sources

Did you know the Library has a whole guide on citing sources?
Check it out: http://libguides.babson.edu/citing

The Library has 2 citation software products that all students, faculty and staff can use:

  • RefWorks: Web-based software for managing citations, creating bibliographies, and adding citations as you write within Word.
  • EndNote: As with RefWorks, EndNote manages citations, creates bibliographies, and “Cites While You Write” in Word. EndNote software is installed on your machine. A web component will be added shortly.

Why use them?

  • Import citations as you’re doing research in databases like EBSCOhost or InfoTrac…or from Google Scholar.
  • Bring these citations directly into your Word document! The software will format it in whatever style you choose (APA, MLA, etc.), you can change styles on the fly, add in-line citations or footnotes as you write, automatically create a works cited page, and more.
