what are in text citations?
In-text citations are reference guidelines that you use within your paper to indicate where you found your information. In addition to your bibliography, you should use in-text citations to indicate where you found the information you present in your paper. Your bibliography and in-text citations should match up. That means if you have an in-text citation, that source should be listed in your bibliography.
In-text citations are also known as parenthetical citations. See below for examples of parenthetical citations.
