For sociology projects and essays, you're typically expected to use one of two citation styles: ASA or APA. If your professor asks you to use ASA style--the style of the American Sociological Association--then consult one of the following resources. For other styles, please refer to the Library's guide to Style Manuals & Writing Guides.
The ASA Style Guide (7th edition, published in 2022) is available at the Level 1 Service Desk HM569 .A54 2022 The ASA Style Guides (6th edition, published in 2019) is available at the help desk. HM569 .A54 2019 This is the authoritative guide for ASA style.
For a "cheat sheet" to ASA style, refer to the Library Quick Guide for ASA style, available at the left in two formats, MS Word or PDF.
