For scholarly articles accessed through a database, provide the print information and then list the database and the DOI (digital object identifier), if the article has one.
Example:
Kelly, Brendan D. "Coronavirus Disease: Challenges for Psychiatry." The British Journal of Psychiatry, vol. 217, no. 1, 2020, pp. 352-353. ProQuest, https://doi:10.1192/bjp.2020.86. . |
In-text citation, direct quote: "..." (Kelly 353).
*Note: Include http:// or https:// with a doi. |
If the article in the database does not have a DOI, use a URL.
For URLs from a database, be sure to use the permalink or stable URL as those remain active links for others to follow. Databases usually make the permalink or stable URL available. (These are not the same as copying the URL from the browser window.) If you click the citation icon included in the database, the permalink is often listed.
Example:
Kelly, Brendan D. "Coronavirus Disease: Challenges for Psychiatry." The British Journal of Psychiatry, vol. 217, no. 1, 2020, pp. 352-353. ProQuest, ezproxy.mcckc.edu.
In-text citation, direct quote: "..." (Kelly 352).
*Note: Do not include http:// or https:// in the URL |
When citing an article from a website, include the URL.
Example:
Hata, Susan R. "The Ritual of the Table." New England Journal of Medicine, 1 Oct. 2020,
www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp2014455?query=recirc_inIssue_bottom_article.
In-text citation, direct quote:
"..." (Hata).
A print article is formatted the same as an online article from a database without any database/URL information.
Example:
Gilbert, Michael D. “The Problem of Voter Fraud.” Columbia Law Review, vol. 115, no. 3, 2015, pp. 739–775.
In-text citation, direct quote example:
"..." (Gilbert 744).
