A Few Simple Form-based Citation Makers

Some web sites allow users to enter the citation information (author, title, journal, volume, etc.) and will create a citation for you on the fly which you can copy and paste into your bibliography. Always double-check citations from citation generators. Sometimes, they make errors in formatting citations, and you may have to do some manual edits.
