The answer to this question will depend on the type of citation style you are using.

Two Common Style Types: MLA and APA

  • Two common citation styles are APA (American Psychological Association) and MLA (Modern Language Association). 
  • Typically, a parenthetical footnote is called an in-text citation in both of these styles.
  • Use the links (APA, MLA) to see guides that provide the generic format and examples for citing sources in MLA and APA style.
  • To view information specifically about in-text citation, go to box on the guide that begins with "Create In-Text Citations".
