Citing of Sources
When you get information
from any source, whether in a book, picture, web site, CD-Rom
Encyclopedia or anywhere else, you MUST give credit to the creator of that
source.
If you are using it
for a printed class report or a Power Point Presentation in class, you must
cite the resources in a bibliography. If
it is a picture, you need to show the source as well. If you are placing material taken from
another source on a web page, you MUST ask the permission of the source’s
creator first. (Some exceptions apply, such as material from a government web
site).
For information or
images from a web site, you should include the following format to show where
it came from:
Basic Web Page
Citing:
Last name, First
name of Author and any other Authors. “Title of Work.” Name of Site. Date of
Posting/Revision. Organization. Date of Access
<electronic address>.
Example
Curry, Robert. “Slavery
Unit.”
< www.sjteach.org/slavery.html >
For printed sources, use the standard bibliography format http://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/research/r_mla.html#Works-Cited
