WRONG!
Librarians recommend that you start a document
when you begin your research. Collecting the
citation information for the resources as you use
them will save you time in the end!

Librarians!
No more underlining – titles and name of online product
are now italicized.
 No more long URLs – only use URL of resource if the
citation information does not lead easily to the source.
 Continuous pagination – no longer required.
 Publication medium – include the medium type such as
print, Web, performance, etc.
 New abbreviations – for missing information, such as
n.d. for no date, n.p. for no publisher.
