Message from the Librarians: It is so important to include a "Works Cited" page with every paper you write. Give credit where it is due. If you used a great source of information, cite it! Teachers know that you get your quotes and other information from somewhere (unless it is "Common Knowledge"), so include a "Works Cited " list at the end of your paper so your teacher can know where you got your information.

“Cite (give publishing information about)

the
Site (the resource you used)
where you
Sighted (located, took notes about)
your facts.”
