Web page from a University site (p. 351-352)

Helpful Tip
  • When citing sources that you find on the Internet you only need to include a retrieval date if the information you viewed is likely to change over time (p. 290).  If you reference an article from a site that may experience continuous updates, you would then need to include a retrieval date.
