Citations

 

Although the databases provide citations for you, use these resources to cite books, magazines, newspapers or other resources.  

 

A great web site to use is Easybib.  You can use this site to automatically generate citations.  They also have an easy to use guide for creating citations - click here to access it.

 

Here are a couple of videos to help you use Easybib.  Please ask Mr. Chrobak or Ms. Thorsen if you have questions!
