Citing+Web+Resources

=How to Cite a Website for a Research Paper= (1 Ratings) The Internet can be a great resource when performing research for a paper. Just as when you retrieve information from a book, journal article or other resource, you must cite the website at the end of your research paper. Citing websites is fairly simple regardless of what style you use. All of the information you need to cite the website should be located right on the web page. Wassink, Zac.
