Citation tools

Your teacher will let you know if you should use Noodletools or a citation machine.

Noodletools is a one-stop platform for you to create citations and link them to notecards. You can outline, make notes, create a bibliography and share it all with your teacher.

Citation machines auto-create a citation for you. You enter the book, magazine, article, or website title and the tool will generate and populate all the appropriate fields. Select the appropriate medium (website, book, journal, newspaper, other, etc) before you enter your title.

NOTE for MyBib

Copy your citations and paste them into a new document. To copy:

Click the three dots on the right of the citation

Select "Copy bibliography entry" (if you just click the copy button, you will get the in-text style citation, which is not what you want!)

Remember that citation generators are powerful tools but they cannot, and should not, do your thinking for you! Always double check the information that the tool outputs.
