Most Commonly Used Citation Styles: MLA, APA, Chicago

It is important to cite your sources to give credit to the author. Three of the most common citation styles are American Psychological Society (APA), Modern Language Association (MLA), and The Chicago Manual of Style (Chicago Style). These styles also come with their own guidelines for formatting papers. Different academic disciplines use different styles because of the different ways that they may wish to convey information. Check with your professor about their preferred style (it is typically also listed in your syllabus) before starting your paper.
