in this session i'm going to demonstrate how to use citations and bibliography and
managing sources for references in a document this is a very powerful tool
and i strongly suggest that if you're a student anywhere take advantage of this this tool allows
you to insert sources of information for a book or article or other material where it came from and
then as you're utilizing it for multiple papers it also builds a repository of the source resource
manager stuff within your master list here let's say this is something that we are citing
so let's assume we copied this and now we want to cite it you first have to determine
what your style of writing is whether it's apa or mla so i'm going to pick at this point apa
basically you just have to do this once for all your papers or for that course or whatever your
for that document and then you click here on insert citation
you could insert an existing one or you add a new source so in this case let's say it's
a book and the author here you can click on edit or you can simply type it here
you enter the title of the author and then
you put the year when it was published the city
and then the publisher as well you could also insert here
additional fields if you needed to as to what volume it is the number of volumes
the title pages and so on then you click ok notice for the apa style this is how you cite this source
last name comma 2016. now we go to another part of the document
and let's assume that this was another section that we want to cite
we put in parentheses and now we go here under citation and then add a new source notice that
under the new source you can pick other things as well so for example you could pick a journal
article you could pick a periodical a conference or a report a website a recording and so on all of
these are the small technicalities that are complicated to remember but this is a tool
that makes it easy for you how to cite it so for example an article from a website you could simply
click so a document from a website and you put in the author notice you also have examples here
so in this case we are going from to the web so we go here to the website and let's say this is
the article can laws keep up with the tech world and it was written and published on such and such
a date so now the author in this case it would be bruce schneier and then we go to our document
and then we'll just put the author in there the name of the web page is the title of the article
the name of the website so this would be for example cnn.com the year 2015
so actually we want to put the year in there the date that it was published so notice it
was updated on november 21st 2015. so we put here year 2015 the month december and then the day 21
and then you also need to put in there the url for this article so we copy it and then
we'll paste it in there and then we simply click ok and it's good to go at this stage
now let's say that somewhere else now notice i'm going up in my document here let's say that this
is my other section that i want to cite and now let's assume that i'm simply citing this
for now i can go ahead and click here on insert citation and i could even pick an
existing citation now notice here under manage sources i used two of them in this document
those that have the check marks those are new ones that i just entered but basically this
is a list of other sources that i have done other research for example this first one now
what i could do is i could utilize this in my document here in my paper so all i have to do
is i go here under insert citation and pick that source to be included now let's suppose that i'm
done with all my citations for this paper and now i want to insert the bibliography
for the works cited go here to my document and insert a new page i go and insert let's say a
page break or whatever basically i'll just do a page break for now and now on the next page
i want to insert the bibliography i go under references and then i click on bibliography
and notice it gives you more options here you have bibliography references and works cited
that will depend on the type of research that you're doing and what your paper or
professor requires so for example if i wanted to bibliography here here's my bibliography and it
has the word bibliography by the way it's putting everything also alphabetically automatically and
it's formatting and italicizing and doing all that redundant work automatically for you you
