Which style do I use?

The term "style" refers to the formatting style that is suggested for the subject for which you are working. The style will dictate how you format not only your citations but also elements such as title pages, outlines, foot notes, page layout, etc.

Typically, in high school, you will either use MLA (Modern Language Association) style or APA (American Psychological Association) style. Always check with your teacher to see what style they wish you to use.
