The Types of Citation Generator Tools on Offer
Our system supports the majority of academic writing formats, including APA 7, APA 6, MLA, Chicago, IEEE, AMA, Turabian, ASA, APSA, Harvard, and CSE. You only have to click on your preferred format and fill every space if you know all the required information.
For example, when you work with a book or a scientific journal, you can paste your book's ISBN number or the DOI to let our system generate things automatically.
APA
Our tool includes both APA 7th edition and APA 6th because some universities in the United States and beyond still use APA 6. The differences mainly concern the location (state) of the publisher, which is why remember to check things twice. Choosing APA option, you can cite a website, book, journal, newspaper, video, magazine, article, book chapter, or PDF.
Chicago
This famous writing format is known for its footnotes/endnotes citation system. Our citation builder lets you download your final results in .doc format to have all the indents and spacing already there. As a rule, you will have all kinds of Chicago citing already included.
MLA
As one of the most popular writing formats among college students, MLA can be easily identified by its author’s last name in the brackets and the Works Cited page for your bibliography. Using our generator, you can help yourself with quoting a book, newspaper, or any electronic reference by choosing the appropriate type or pasting your book’s ISBN or the title. Using our search feature, you can enter keywords that relate to your topic to see what other popular books have been published.
Turabian
Often called a “simplified version of Chicago”, it is much more than that, which is why our citation generator comes in handy with all the minor differences that must be included. Remember that you can choose any source type and even search for relevant sources by entering relevant keywords.
AMA
It has been created by the American Medical Association, which makes it obvious that the majority of medical students in the United States are forced to use this format. Our citation generator also keeps every formatting rule in the final file that you can download, including page numbering, fonts, spacing, and the references page that must be numbered exactly in a way how the citations have been used in your paper.
We recommend you to download your generated template file in MS Word format as you create citation because it will help you to work in a document that already has all the indents and formatting for your chosen style. You can copy your existing text in our file and make a manual correction when and if necessary.
