Although you should avoid using secondary sources, sometimes an author's work that you are using as a source will mention another person’s work by using a quotation or paraphrased idea from that source. For example, the Kirkey article you are reading includes a quotation by Smith that you would like to include in your essay.
The basic rule is that in both your works cited and in-text citation you will cite Kirkey, not Smith.
You will add the words “qtd. in” (short for: 'quoted in') to your in-text citation.
Examples of in-text citations:
According to a study by Smith (qtd. in Kirkey) 42% of doctors would refuse to perform legal euthanasia.
Smith (qtd. in Kirkey) states that “even if euthanasia was legal, 42% of doctors would be against this method of assisted dying” (A.10).
