Citing Electronic Sources

Students and faculty often experience frustration with citing electronic sources in their reports and papers. Now, thanks to this process had been simplified and standardized. For citation style see The Columbia Guide to Online Style by Walker and Taylor for more information. Below are examples of citations of materials obtained on the world wide web. The Columia Guide will provide you with additional citation helps.

Humanities Style

To cite files available on the WWW, give the author's name, last name first (if known); the full title of the work, in quotation marks; the title of the complete work (if applicable), in italics; any version or file numbers; and the date of the document or last revision (if available). Next, list the protocol (e.g., "http") and the full URL, followed by the date of access in parentheses.
