Google Docs Intros Updated Citation Tool

Google has introduced an updated citation feature for Google Docs, designed to "streamline the citations process, ensure correct formatting, and reduce the chances of manual errors."

The new feature, accessible from the Tools menu, allows users to search cited materials and automatically format them for MLA, APA and Chicago styles. Searches can be conducted for online articles using a URL and for printed books using ISBN.

The citation tool will be available to all Google Workspace users, as well and G Suite Basic and Business users and users with individual Google accounts.

The updated feature is currently being rolled out to rapid release domains, with the full rollout expected in late November to early December.
