The information involved in a citation comes from a database. Hence, if there is no information in the database, you must use manual entry. Citation Machine just simply gets the format, plugs in the information, and then displays it for you to copy and paste. Citation Machine uses ISBN numbers to query their database, the authors have not, as of yet, found an ISBN number which exists in the Citation Machine database.<br>
