How to Cite Sources From Journals in Your Paper

Style is important. And when you cite the sources you use in your paper, it's always a question of style. Whether you use MLA, Chicago, Turabian or APA style depends on the organization you are writing for, and the purpose of your paper. Journals are a frequently used source in any type of research, regardless of the style. Be sure to carefully cite the journals you rely on in your scholarship.
