Q. How do I cite a website?

How you will cite a web site is dependent on the type of material found just like with printed resources.  Not all sites will have all the information but the most common elements included are:

• Title of web site;
• Title of the article;
• Author, editor or corporation responsible for the page;
• Copyright date of material included in the article;
• Date you accessed the page since pages on the web often change.

Noodlebib will help you formulate a correct citation by walking you through the various elements.  If you want to read more about this take a look at Purdue's MLA information on citing electronic sources or APA citing of electronic sources.
