Citation Information

You can find the publication information you will need for your citations on the left side of the source. For articles, make sure you use the name of the journal and not the publisher. In the example below, the journal name would be Victorian Periodicals Review. 

We do not recommend using the "cite" option because it can have errors. If you choose to use it, be sure to check make sure it is formatted properly for your citation style. 

Finding the URL

Just below the citation information, you will find options for two different types of links:
