Information About How to Cite From Ebscohost in APA Style

Scholars are, by necessity, readers. As English man of letters Dr. Samuel Johnson said, "A man will turn over half a library to make one book." Scholars can often make their work lighter by relying on aggregators for easier identification of sources relevant to their field of study. One such aggregator is EBSCOhost. The EBSCOhost database allows access to reference databases, journals and books that you may find useful in your research. If you're using APA style, cite your EBSCOhost-retrieved sources correctly.
