In Text Citations in the body of the paper
Direct Quotes
A direct quote is a word for word copy of source material. The quote is enclosed in quotation marks. Include the
author's last name and date of publication and page numbers, if available.

Two examples

"The market for these low-cost machines is driven by inexpensive bandwidth” (Fontana & Montalbano, 2008,
p.12).

Fontana and Montalbano (2008) point out “the market for these low-cost machines is being driven by
inexpensive bandwidth” (p.12).

Block Quotes
The block quote is used for direct quotations that are longer than 40 words. Indent the entire quote ½ inch or 5-
7 spaces. Double space the entire quotation.

Example

Experts have said that the big question is how big the market will become for low-cost computing

devices. ULCPCs are attracting interest from governments, schools, emerging markets and developing

countries. Microsoft is fighting against emerging interests in using Linux over Windows to keep

development costs down. (Fontana & Montalbano, 2008, p. 12)

Paraphrase
A paraphrase is an idea from another work written in your own words. Include the author's last name and the
year of publication. Page numbers are encouraged but optional.

Examples
Fontana and Montalbano (2008) note that low priced Netbooks are gaining share because of the relatively
cheap Internet access capable of downloading large files; the wealth of Internet based applications; and ability
for files to be created, produced, stored, and administered on Internet hosted sites (p.12).
