What is the difference between a citation and a reference? Why are both important to proper documentation in a report?


A citation identifies a source in the text body of the report whenever quoted or paraphrased material is used that should be attributed. The citation only includes limited information so that the reader can look up the details of the reference on the References page at the end of the report. The References page is an alphabetic listing of all the works mentioned in the citations throughout the paper. All necessary information for locating the reference is included in each entry on the References page.
