Learning to do library and web-based information research is an important part of information competency.

Any words, ideas, or images that you do not create or come up with yourself must be properly credited to avoid plagiarism.
Citing information sources acknowledges the origin of your information, and it provides support and credibility to your work by showing evidence of your research.
A citation is a reference to the source of an idea, information, or image. It typically includes enough identifying information (such as the author, title, date, publication format, etc.) for someone else to be able to locate it themselves. Access the CCSF Library Citing Sources guidance for information on how to properly credit a source.
