Citing Science Buddies Articles

Post by Janice1964 »

My seventh graders are citing a Science Buddies article on Ph levels of acid rain and are entering bibliography citations. They have indicated that no author is cited for the article. I also do not see credit given for the article. Should the article be cited as Science Buddy staff?

Hi Janice,

Yes, any article on our site that does not have a specific author listed can just be cited "Science Buddies staff." Are you referring to this page?

https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... p016.shtml

either the MLA or APA citation examples given on that page are fine.
