Read about using DOIs and check out the DOI flowchart to determine how to properly cite articles from databases.

NoodleTools

NoodleTools walks you through the process of creating references in proper APA format for all your sources and results in a Works Cited page that you can then open in Word. NoodleTools citations end with an Annotation field, so that you can create your annotated bibliography while formatting citations. NoodleTools citations should still be thoroughly reviewed by you for proper APA format.
