You need to have each source of information cited in TWO places:
A. the Works Cited page that is placed after the last page of your paper, and
B. in parentheses in the text of your paper, immediately after the quotation or paraphrase.
For example, this would go on the Works Cited page (with proper indentation for the second and following lines):
Du Bois, W.E.B. The Souls of Black Folk. Chicago, 1903. Project Bartleby. Ed. Steven van Leeuwen. Dec. 1995. Columbia U. 2 Dec. 2003
<www.cc.columbia.edu/acis/bartleby/dubois/>.
... and this would go immediately after the quotation or whatever:
(Du Bois)
The information in parentheses in the text needs to be as brief as possible. That's why there's a Works Cited page – for all the details of the listing.
------------------
In the website above, hold your cursor over the words CITING SOURCES in the left column and then click on whatever type of source you need help with. Many examples will show up. You will get two examples for each type of reference – one for the Works Cited page and one for the parenthetical (in-text) citation.
You can also see what a Works Cited page looks like – click on Sample Works Cited in the left column.

When creating a bibliography for your research paper, you need to provide proper citations for all the sources you used, including websites and interviews. Here's how you can format the bibliography entry for a website and an interview:
Website:
Last Name, First Name. "Title of Webpage." Title of Website, Publisher, Publication Date, URL.
For example:
Smith, John. "The Mystery of My Uncle's Disappearance." Ancestry.com, Ancestry Publishing, 15 July 2020, www.ancestry.com/mystery-of-uncle-disappearance.
Interview:
Last Name, First Name. Personal interview, Day Month Year.
For example:
Doe, Jane. Personal interview, 10 August 2020.
Make sure to include the relevant information such as the author's name, title of the webpage, title of the website, publisher, publication date, URL (for websites), and the person's name and the date of when the interview was conducted. Please note that this is just a general guideline, and you may need to adapt it based on the specific citation style (e.g., APA, MLA) your research paper requires.
Additionally, when referencing information from the website or interview within the body of your research paper, use in-text citations. This includes providing the author's name and year of publication, or the person's name and the date of the interview, within parentheses.
Remember to always consult the specific citation guidelines or requirements given by your instructor or institution to ensure accuracy and consistency in your bibliography.
