 * The simplest way to cite sources is to use Parenthetical references or Parenthetical documentation.**
 * The author's last name and page number(s) are placed in parentheses in the text to give credit to sources.**
 * For example, in your paper you write:**
 * In their Preface, the authors point out that "Learning Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and Extensible Hypertext Markup Language (XHTML) is like learning any new language, computer or human" (Musciano and Kennedy xi). **
 * In your Bibliography, or on your Works Cited page, you list:**
 * Musciano, Chuck, and Bill Kennedy. __HTML and XHTML: The__ __Definitive Guide__. 4th ed. Sebastopol, CA: O'Reilly, 2000. **
 * __If you cite another paragraph from the same work__, or if the author or authors are clearly indicated in your text, common sense dictates that you only need to add page number(s) for the citation. For example:**


 * If you are quoting from a __Web page__, your citation for a parenthetical reference follows the same format as any regular citations for author, editor, title, etc. with one exception. Where no page reference is available on a Web page, indicate the author's last name, or the short title if no author is stated, without any page reference, e.g. (Meyer) or (Patron Saints Index) . A corresponding entry must be made in your Bibliography.**
 * To cite information obtained from the Internet, in your text you write, e.g.:**
 * On May 2, 2002, some 4500 students wrote the difficult University of Waterloo, Physics Department, Sir Isaac Newton (SIN) Examination. Amazingly, there were three perfect papers! Two team members from Don Mills Collegiate Institute broke Waterloo's SIN record not so much for finishing First Place but both students on the team had perfect exams ("SIN 2002"). **
 * In your Bibliography, your entry for this parenthetical reference would read:**
 * "SIN 2002 Book Prize Winners." U of Waterloo. 3 Nov. 2002 . **
