1 MLA Style In-text Citations

2 Three ways to include research information Quotation- must be identical to the original. They must match the source document word for word. Paraphrase- involves putting a passage from source material into your own words. Paraphrased material is usually shorter than the original passage, taking a somewhat broader piece of the source and condensing it slightly. Summary- involves putting the main idea(s) into your own words, including only the main point(s). Summaries are significantly shorter than the original and take a broad overview of the source material. It is necessary to attribute quotations, paraphrases, and summaries to the original source (Driscoll and Brizee).

3 Quotation, Paraphrase, & Summary Original TextQuotationParaphraseSummary WORKING CONDITIONS AND REQUIREMENTS Veterinarians generally work without supervision; however, they may supervise veterinary assistants and veterinary technicians. Working conditions vary with the type of practice. In rural areas, they spend a large amount of time working outdoors and going to and from farms. In urban areas, work is usually indoors in clean, well lighted, well ventilated hospitals and clinics. Most research Veterinarians have well- equipped laboratories in which to work. In meat and food processing plants, they may spend time in refrigerated storage rooms. ("Health Careers In Michigan") “Working conditions vary with the type of practice” ("Health Careers In Michigan"). Veterinarians may spend a large amount of time working outdoors or may work mostly indoors in clinics ("Health Careers In Michigan“). Veterinarians are not supervised, but may supervise others. The working conditions will depend on the type of practice: rural, urban, research, or meat and food processing ("Health Careers In Michigan").

4 Citing sources: In-text citations In text citations are the parenthesis and the information inside the parenthesis. “Working conditions vary with the type of practice”("Health Careers In Michigan"). End quotation marks go before parenthesis. Punctuation goes outside the parenthesis.
