Users may generate a citation for an item in the Digital Special Collections by clicking on Cite button (highlighted in the orange box in the screenshot below). Please note that additional details may need to be added to this citation from the descriptive information found in the item page. In many cases (especially with publications) the automatically generated citation is only a starting point for building a full citation.

The popup window will also provide the permalink for the item and a "Copy" button.

To generate a citation, select APA, Chicago, or MLA from the drop-down menu. Then copy the text generated and paste it elsewhere. If additional details about the item are needed to build a full citation, use the permalink to return to the item to access the additional descriptive information available.
