Machine Generated Citations

Creating Computer Generated Citations from EBSCO databases (including Library OneSearch):

From your EBSCO database, identify the book or article you want to cite. As of July 18, 2025, you can create a citation to any book or article by clicking on the three dots to the right of your search result:

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________

 

Formatting Article Citations from non-EBSCO sources:

  • While not always reliable, you can look up your article title (use quotation marks around it) in Google Scholar, then click on the Cite link below the article entry.  
  • A useful tool for creating citations is Citation Machine. You can look up your source and generate a citation in the format of your choice. 

    Book references can be formatted in APA or MLA by ISBN lookup. References in other formats can generated by adding information to the required boxes in an online form.

    Once again, computer generated citations may not be entirely reliable.  You can also fill in information manually and generate a citation. In some cases, you may need to consult the print version of the guide. These are available in the library. You are also welcome to ask a librarian or contact the writing centre for help.
