Many research databases offer cite this item features, which generate citations in the most popular styles (MLA, APA, etc.) for any source that you find. You can then save, download, email, or copy-paste these directly into your papers.
Note: Be sure to always confirm what edition of the style manual the generator is using and what edition your professor wants you to use to make sure they are the same.
Make sure to double check your citations by hand with the library's Citing Sources guide. Citation generators are helpful, but are not always the most accurate.
