Different Types of Sources 
Here is more specific information on oral citations for different types of sources: 
Oral Citations for Articles (Journal or Newspaper)
Articles – if you are orally citing information from a magazine, newspaper or journal article provide the author’s credentials (if relevant), the full date and title of the source.
Sample Oral Citations for Articles:

The Minneapolis Star Tribune of January 31, 2018, quotes Chris Nowinski, cofounder of the Concussion Legacy Foundation, on the dangers of youth tackle football. “Children,” he says, “were never intended to be hit in the head five hundred times in three months every year while their brain is going through incredible development.”
Oral Citations for Books 
Books – if you are citing information from a book, provide the full title of the book, year of publication, and a brief mention of the author’s credentials.
Sample Oral Citations for Books:

Oral Citations for Webpages (Companies, Organizations, etc.)
Websites/Webpages – if you are citing a website you need to establish the credibility of the site. Please do not use Wikipedia, ask Jeeves, or other non-credible websites. If you are citing a website, be sure you mention the following information in your oral citation:
The title of the website
The author(s)/sponsoring organization supports the site
Check the credentials of the site. Look for links like “About Us” or “Our Mission” to determine the credibility of the site.
The last date the article or information was updated, if known (sometimes at 
the bottom of a content page you can find this date) OR The date you accessed the website/webpage
If you cannot find this information on a website/webpage, you may want to consider 
finding a different source. The credibility of this information is in question. 
Oral Citations for Websites 
In an oral citation of a website, you do not need to give the URL.
Sample Oral Citations for Websites:

Please remember an oral citation should give the listener enough information to find the source. Therefore, just stating the newspaper title or the author is not enough information.
