See Citing Sources from the Consortium Library's How to Guide series that explains:
If you don't want to use RefWorks, try one of these other citation management options. These are free, but you will have to create an account to use them.
Tip! When citing an article from a journal, remember use the template for a journal article citation, not a website. Yes, the article may be found on the web, but it's important to cite the information from the journal, not the website.
1. For an article found in a print journal, include the basic citation information:
Peanut, X., Butter, Y. Y., & Jelly, Z. Z. Z. (2016). Sandwich ingredient preferences of common ravens (Corvus corax) (Corvidae) in Anchorage dumpsters. Avian Biology 12(2), 1453-1461.
2. For an article found online that includes a DOI (Digital Object Identifier), include the basic citation information plus the DOI:
Banana, A. B., & Apple, C. (2014). Preferred fruit selections of hungry University of Alaska Anchorage students. Journal of Health and Human Behavior, 446(3), 77-83. doi:12.3456/123456789
