Important
Note =>When using a magazine or journal
article from a database, such as Infotrac
Onefile, you must cite it differently than
you would if you used a paper copy.
Here is an example of a citation in
MLA
style for a source found in the database Infotrac Onefile.
Phinney, Alan. "Cinderella Cactus."
Sunset Oct. 2001.
Infotrac Onefile. Gale Group. Cuyamaca
College Lib.,
El Cajon, CA. 17 Dec. 2003

T
he
above citation in MLA Style would be very different if you found a copy
of this article in an actual magazine.
Phinney, Alan. "Cinderella Cactus."
Sunset Oct. 2001: 78-80.
