Pulling Citations from Databases

If you use a source found on the library's website, you can copy the citation directly from the database. Always make sure to double check these citations for accuracy! The database does most of the work for you, but it's up to you to use other resources like style guides and the Purdue OWL to make sure they're accurate.

In MILO, click on the title of the resource you are using. Then click the "citation" button, select your desired format from the list on the left side, then copy your citation into your works cited or bibliography page. To see what this looks like in other databases, watch our YouTube video about pulling Citations from Databases.
