    Citations in EbscoHost

    Citation generators (such as the EBSCO database generator or products like BibTeX or Zotero) are really nice tools for saving time, but they aren't always 100% correct, so being familiar enough to spot the mistakes is always a good idea when using them. They save a lot of time in the copying and pasting and formatting departments but don't forget to d those citations for med mistakes. The databases can only be as smart as the data entry, so things like ALLCAPS, mistakes in the DOI, or missing italics happen. Always make sure to proofread!

    And when copying from EBSCO, make sure to merge formatting (Microsoft Office- Ctrl + m) or paste without formatting (Ctrl + Shift + v) or click the CLIPBOARD icon to remove the funky tan/gray background, and to match the same font and style you are using. Be sure to add back in any italics or other formatting that will be removed if you paste without formatting.
