Atlantic Worlds Research Paper: Citation Resources

What are citations?

We use citations to communicate information about our resources with our audience and other researchers. By citing, we're letting the reader know that we're not claiming work that isn't ours. We're also giving them the information they need to locate our sources and to learn more about these ideas should they be interested in learning more.
