Review what you have written to make sure it is in fact paraphrased and not a direct quote, as the citations are different for each. You must have put information or text into your own words for it to be considered paraphrased.
Check to see if you have used the author’s name in the sentence. If you have, write the publication year of your source in parentheses and place it directly after the author’s name. Although not required, if you are referring to information on a specific page, including a page number after the publication year is encouraged; place a comma between the date and the page number.
Create an in-text citation at the end of the sentence if you have not already included the author’s name within the sentence. In parentheses, write the author’s last name, a comma and the publication year. A page number is often included after the publication year, but is not required. Add the information in parentheses at the end of the sentence, before the period.
