You will want to cite or credit your sources whenever you use someone else's
work. For example, if you use ideas or information from a book, a magazine
article, a website, or even another person you need to say where you got your
information. Why do I cite my sources? It is called plagiarism when you do not give credit for ideas, words, quotes, or other information that you did not write yourself. How do I cite my sources? You can create your own bibliography or you can use one of the bibliography makers available online. When do I cite my sources? You should cite your source or sources anytime you borrow or quote someone else's work. Some examples would be a science fair project, a book report, or a social studies project.
