Academic Citation Style Matcher

How it helps

Use it for a focused task

This page lets you enter a source (book, journal article, website, video, or conference paper) and instantly see how it would be cited in seven major academic styles. Each citation includes style-specific notes about formatting rules, common mistakes, and when that style is typically required.

You can copy any citation to your clipboard, print the comparison table, or bookmark the page with your inputs saved in the URL. Start by selecting a source type from the dropdown.

Fill in the fields that appear. The citation panel updates live as you type.
