How do you use quotation marks and in-text citations?

Answer

To use a quote in quotation marks, place an in-text citation after the quotation marks which contains:

  • The author's last name
  • The year the work was published
  • Page number on which the quote appears

Example - In-text citation:

Lynn McDonald wrote, "International companies should evaluate their product marketing" (McDonald, 2019, p. 305).
