Where do you place citations in a history term paper?
On One Hand: College Term PapersCitations for college history papers should be in the form of end notes or footnotes, which are either at the bottom of the page or the end of the paper. A number corresponding to the citation goes in the text next to the cited material, and the citation itself goes in the notes.On the Other: High School Term PapersHigh school term papers are usually written in MLA or APA format, in which case the citation would be parenthetical and in the text. Simply add the citation at the end of the cited sentence in parenthesis.Bottom LineCitation placement depends on the level of the history class.
