The latest edition of Harbrace
Essentials, by Cheryl Glenn and Loretta Gray, provides guidelines for four
different methods of citing sources; Modern Language Association style; Chicago Manual
of Style; American Psychological Association style; and Council of Science Editors
style.
Most teachers would agree with the following
statement:
readability="9">
There is no single, "right" way to cite a source;
there are various ways required in different circumstances and by different teachers,
and it is important to follow your teacher's precise directions. -- Robert C. Evans
:-)
If you are writing your
paper for an English class, the preferred choice is probably the Modern Language
Association style. If you are writing your paper for a history class, the preferred
choice is probably the Chicago Manual of Style. You may want to ask your teacher which
of these two styles of documentation s/he prefers.

examples of how to cite interviews using the MLA and CMS methods, see the links
