Methods of CitationPlease use a consistent and correct style of citation, but with in-text citations that include page numbers where applicable (ie for books, but not a webpage) and a reference/works cited list. Please use either APA 6 or MLA 7 citation format.

Internet Resources: UTL Catalogue E-resources (e.g. JSTOR Catalogue, Scholar’s Portal, etc.) are admissible as sources, but no other websites or Internet sources are admissible as academic sources for assignments. Please do not utilize or document any other website of any kind as research for your essays, unless it is specifically a case study (a blog, art exhibition, news story or forum) for analysis using one of the methods. Doing so will result in an automatic point deduction of up to one full letter grade. If you have any questions or concerns about this, or if you would like to verify the suitability of your sources, please speak to the Instructor directly. An exception to this rule may be sites such as Google Books or a major news outlet’s website, but I strongly advise you to talk to the instructor before using such a source. Please bear in mind: You should never use Wikipedia as a primary cited resource. While Wikipedia might be used as a starting point for accessing other research materials (e.g. exploring any academic articles used as resources in the footnotes of an entry), it should never serve as a primary source, or as a referenced source in academic papers.
