Here is the procedure to save the URL for citation:

2.      Click once in the Location box (where the URL is found) at the top of the browser window to highlight the entire URL. 

 

3.      With the URL highlighted, go to the Edit menu, and choose Copy.

 

4.      Now, click back on the button that represents Word on the bottom of the screen on the Taskbar, and then place your cursor right before the text that you have just copied.
