It will be different if you are using MLA (Modern Language Association used in English classes) or APA (American Psychological Association for social sciences). I will paste examples of each for you below, although the formatting will be altered through the server. If you go into Encyclopedia Britannica, they will show an example for each. I hope that helps!
MLA style:
"blackjack." Encyclopædia Britannica. 2006. Encyclopædia Britannica Online. 31 Dec. 2006
APA style:
blackjack. (2006). In Encyclopædia Britannica. Retrieved December 31, 2006, from Encyclopædia Britannica Online: http://www.britannica.com/eb/article-9015541

I agree with Patsy because I used the MLA format in my writing. I know that for one thing that most professors/teachers don't really like students to use the encycolpidia as one of their research sources.
