How to Cite Sources
In addition to giving credit to the author for using their work, providing citations allows the reader of your work to retrieve your source material. This benefits both you and the reader of your works since it:
- provides evidence to support your work;
- the reader can see how you drew your conclusions and whether or not there is evidence to support your claims; and
- it also gives the reader of your work an opportunity to further their knowledge on your presented topic.
For engineering classes we use the IEEE Editorial Style Manual. For anything not covered in this document. use the Chicago Manual of Style online or check out the paper copies on Course Reserves

The ASU Library acknowledges the twenty-three Native Nations that have inhabited this land for centuries. Arizona State University's four campuses are located in the Salt River Valley on ancestral territories of Indigenous peoples, including the Akimel O’odham (Pima) and Pee Posh (Maricopa) Indian Communities, whose care and keeping of these lands allows us to be here today. ASU Library acknowledges the sovereignty of these nations and seeks to foster an environment of success and possibility for Native American students and patrons. We are advocates for the incorporation of Indigenous knowledge systems and research methodologies within contemporary library practice. ASU Library welcomes members of the Akimel O’odham and Pee Posh, and all Native nations to the Library.
