Citations can be confusing depending on exactly what kind of work it is, how many authors there are and even whether or not the author is listed. Follow these examples for specific situations. Be sure to double-space all works cited or works consulted lists.

When creating PowerPoint presentations with copyrighted materials, you need to include an opening screen (see below) in addition to your works cited slide at the end of the PowerPoint show. Copyrighted materials can include text, images, music, and video clips. The photos that you find in AP Multimedia Archive database, for example, are copyrighted. You should copy/paste the URL of any image you use directly below that image on the slide where it appears.

Your opening screen should say:

NOTICE: The following presentation contains copyrighted materials used under the Multimedia Guidelines and Fair Use exemptions of U.S. Copyright law. Further use is prohibited.

You may simply copy and paste the above (select "paste special" and choose to paste at text, unformatted text, or unicode text) onto your PowerPoint slide.

For examples of citations of print, audio, and video works, see Citation Guidelines.
