Citing+WorldBook

First, to cite a source, you must locate the following information: You can find this information at the bottom of the page. Also, at the end of the article, the citing is correct.
 * How to Cite a Source Found on an Electronic Encyclopedia **
 * Author’s name
 * Name of the article
 * Name of encyclopedia in which it was found
 * Year of publication
 * Date you found the article
 * URL of the article

Example: For the URL: []

1. The author’s name, found at the bottom of the page under “Contributor”, is W. Bernard Carlson. To cite this, you need to put the last name first, and a period at the end. You’re cite would look like this so far:

Carlson, W. Bernard.

2. Next, you need the name of the article, found at the very top of the page, in **bold**  print. This is put in quotation marks (“”), with a period after the word, inside the quotation marks. You’re cite would look like this so far:

Carlson, W. Bernard. “Technology.”

3. After this, you must locate the encyclopedia it was found in. This is in huge, bold print, and are the first words of the webpage. Write this in //italics//  and put a period at the end again. You’re cite would look like this so far:

Carlson, W. Bernard. “Technology.” //World Book Online.//

4. Then, you look at the bottom of the page under “How to Cite This Article:” for the year of the last update, and put a period at the end. You’re cite would look like this so far:

Carlson, W. Bernard. “Technology.” <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">//World Book Online// <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. 2010.

5. Next, you can include the word “Web” along with a period at the end. This is to include the medium of article this is. You’re cite should look like this so far:

Carlson, W. Bernard. “Technology.” <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">//World Book Online// <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. 2010. Web.

6. Now, type the date of the day you looked it up, putting the day first, then the month (If it is over four letters, only type the first three letters, and a period. If it is four letters or under, type out the entire month), and the year last, followed by a period. You’re cite should look like this so far:

Carlson, W. Bernard. “Technology.” <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">//World Book Online// <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. 2010. Web. 22 Nov. 2010.

7. Lastly, paste in the URL, it will start with “www.” and will be on top of the browser, not on the web page. Make a period outside of these. You’re cite should look like this:

Carlson, W. Bernard. “Technology.” <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">//World Book Online// <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. 2010.
