The Bible
Each citation style has specific rules related to citations
for the Bible. In addition, in-text references to quotations from the Bible
are treated in different ways depending on citation style. For example, MLA parenthetical citations include an
abbreviated version of the name of the book and also includes the chapter and
verse of the scripture.

Avoiding Plagiarism
Writers cite their sources for a number of different reasons. However,
there is not a single good reason for the improper use or faulty citation of
research sources. Visit the Citing
Sources Menu Page for information on avoiding plagiarism..
