Why Cite?

Now that you've found your information, you need to cite where you found it.  Why?  So someone interested in getting similar information knows where you looked.  As the expert, you have a responsibility to teach others how to do the same research!  Don't worry, it's easy.

Citing Statistics

In order to cite statistics, you will have to change the level of your project to Advanced, and then look for Tables/Charts.  See a librarian if you have questions!

Here are the essential elements for citing the statistical information you're using in this project.  It's great practice for when you use other data sets and information in other projects.

Citation Element Description

Date of Publication Year the dataset was published or disseminated.
