Citations are required and expected in many settings, especially in academic work. There are many ways that citations benefit students, scholars, and professionals:
Avoid plagiarism: Citations give credit to ideas you've gotten from someone else
Demonstrate credibility: Citations show that you've done your research
Leave a path: Citations help you find information you've used to support your argument - and allow readers to assess that information, too
Join professional conversations: Citations link your work to the work of others
