Citation is stating where you got your information.

The reasons you cite:

• To give credit where credit is due – to avoid plagiarizing
• To give information about a source so people (i.e. your instructor) can find it

You need to cite:

• In the paper (in-text citations)
• At the end (reference list)

MRU has prepared handy citation guides that summarize how to create notes and bibliographies for the styles like Chicago and MLA. Near the end of each guide are examples of how to cite different types of resources, which can give you a useful template.
