You need to have each source of information <b>cited in TWO places</b>:

A. <b>the Works Cited page</b> that is placed after the last page of your paper, and
B. <b>in parentheses in the text of your paper</b>, immediately after the quotation or paraphrase.

For example, this would go on the Works Cited page (with proper indentation for the second and following lines):

Du Bois, W.E.B. <i>The Souls of Black Folk.</i> Chicago, 1903. <i>Project Bartleby.</i> Ed. Steven van Leeuwen. Dec. 1995. Columbia U. 2 Dec. 2003
<www.cc.columbia.edu/acis/bartleby/dubois/>.

... and this would go immediately after the quotation or whatever:
(Du Bois)

The information in parentheses in the text needs to be as brief as possible. That's why there's a Works Cited page – for all the details of the listing.

------------------

In the website above, hold your cursor over the words <b>CITING SOURCES</b> in the left column and then click on whatever type of source you need help with. Many examples will show up. You will get two examples for each type of reference – one for the Works Cited page and one for the parenthetical (in-text) citation.

You can also see what a Works Cited page looks like – click on <b>Sample Works Cited</b> in the left column.

Here's the link for citing interviews:
