Academic Integrity and Documentation

Types of Documentation

In-Text or Parenthetical Citations

MLA Style

The formatting and required information for in-text citations will vary by style guide, and those style guides are updated periodically. In addition to consulting the required style guide’s manual for your assignment, UMGC’s Library has created excellent resources to help guide you in learning how to properly document your source according to the most commonly used style guides in academia.  In an effort to ensure that no available information on documentation styles is out of date, the Library will serve as the central hub for this guidance.
