Citation
The citation tells the source of information. It includes the author, artist, or cartoonist, the date of publication, and the place where it was published. The place of publication might be the title of a book and the page number, or the website address and the date you found it. Giving a citation is also called documentation, footnoting, or citing the source.

Journals
A journal is a day book that a person writes in every day in order to record information on a particular subject. For example, in a war journal you might record information, include maps, articles and pictures, write about your thoughts, ask questions, write down new words, and record stories you hear about these events. Journals are similar to diaries. Both are day books, written in and dated every day, but diaries are much more personal and private.
