Q. Can I cite in-text once at the end of a paragraph, or do I need to cite after each sentence?

When you use a source more than once in a paragraph you should cite the source each time. Citing only once at the end of the paragraph isn't enough, as it doesn't clearly show where you started using information from another person's work or ideas.

This can be tricky though - you want your paper or assignment to flow nicely while while properly citing your sources. There is a way you can avoid having to write full in-text citations each and every time by adding a lead-in sentences to your paragraph.

This document from Rasmussen College's FAQ page gives detailed examples on how add lead in sentences and what pitfalls to avoid.
