Your question is rather vague. Are you talking about finding the source of information, or citing it? Try googling for the former; for the latter, start here: FOOTNOTES

well that isn't the way my teacher told me how to do it. i can't find an example of what i'm talking about. well, it goes like this:
So and so is 43 and is part of the 1 percent of America who have so and so disease ( Poison, 2004).
Poison would be the name of the book and 2004 is the year it was copyright(?). I'm not sure if it's suppose to be the copyright date or the year

Ah. No.
In parentheses go the surname of the author, and the date of publication; this is often followed by the page number, 'p ***'. The comma between author and date is usually omitted. This brief reference refers your reader to your bibliography at the end of the paper, where you cite the reference in detail.
