Citing Sources in Google Docs

How to Create Citations and Bibliography in Google DocsDid you know you can EASILY cite sources without ever leaving Google Docs? Yep! It’s so easy!

This is just one of those amazing features of Google Docs that you have to see! This may be old news to you, but just in case, I feel that it’s my mission to make sure everyone knows that citations are built into Google Docs.

I share this tip often during presentations, and just talking about it doesn’t do it justice. You have to try it! When I demo this feature, it never fails to get some jaw drops with some ooooohs and aaaaahs!

Oh, and did I mention that Google Docs will save all of your sources so you can insert a bibliography in one click!???
