Why?

Three Good Reasons
When you use someone elses work or ideas you
must give that person credit.
1.
A citation provides a method of giving
recognition to the author of an idea or
expression whether from a written source or some
other medium.
2.
A citation allows your audience to locate your
sources
furthering their knowledge.
3.
If you do not cite the sources upon which your
research is based, you will be guilty of
plagiarism.
