Citing or citation is a practice of documenting the information sources used in your academic work. This video explains what citation is and why we do it: 

Citation: A (Very) Brief Introduction by NCSU Libraries is licensed under CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 US.

APA style citations require two parts:

• In-text citation – is a short citation in your paper's body every time you use material from outside sources. Every in-text citation in your paper should appear on your References list. Each brief in-text citation corresponds to its full citation in the References list.
• The References list – is an alphabetical list at the end of your paper that includes a full citation for each source you used in your paper's body. Every citation in your References list should have a corresponding in-text citation in the body of your work.
