USU Libraries   Citing a Variety of Sources

Tweets, Films, Interviews, oh my!

So far, we've mostly talked about citing books and articles. While these may be the sources you cite more frequently, no matter what format your source is, you must cite it. Other common sources you might run into are tweets, films, interviews and images. Below are examples of what these citations would look like in MLA and APA style.
