  1. Writing a Bibliography Ms. Catsos Western Civ Source: “How to do a Bibliography.” <http://www.bbmatters.net/bb_matters_april/articles/april/Accessibility_Lessner.ppt>.

  2. Why write an accurate bibliography? • You are using someone else’s work • You teacher will know the information and will notice inaccuracy • Your teacher may check your sources • It’s an important part of your grade on all research projects

  3. What is plagiarism? Source: http://cdn.techpp.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/plagiarism.GIF

  4. Plagiarism • Plagiarism is also forgetting to cite your source- even if it’s an accident! • At CCHS, plagiarism will result in a failing grade.

  5. What information do you need to include? • The title of the book, magazine, newspaper, website, video, etc. • The author • The publisher • The date of publication • The place where it was published • The web address

  6. Citing a Web Site • Go to the site http://www.mythweb.com/gods/Zeus.html • Title of the article: Zeus • Title of site: MythWeb • Last revised: July 30, 2010. • Author: Joel Skidmore

  7. Plugging it in • Website format: • Author last name, author first name. “Title of article.” Name of site. Date published. Web. Date accessed. <url>. • Our example: • Skidmore, Joel. "Zeus." Greek Mythology. 30 July 2010. Web. 16 Sept. 2010. <http://www.mythweb.com/gods/Zeus.html>.

  8. Multiple Sources? Make a list. • Title your list: Bibliography. • Put sources in alphabetical order. • Use “hanging indents.” The indent should go on the second line.

  9. Example Bibliography Bibliography Atsma, Aaron J. “Demeter.” Theoi Greek Mythology. Web. 13 Sept. 2010. <http://www.theoi.com/Olympios/Demeter.html>. "Demeter - Crystalinks." Crystalinks Metaphysical and Science Website. Web. 13 Sept. 2010. <http://www.crystalinks.com/demeter.html>. "Persephone." Encyclopedia Mythica: Mythology, Folklore, and Religion. 24 June 2005. Web. 13 Sept. 2010. <http://www.pantheon.org/articles/p/perseph one.html>.

  10. Helpful Shortcuts • I encourage use of the following helpful websites: • Easybib.com • Sonofcitationmachine.com • Noodletools.com • However, do not rely totally on them! They may leave out some important information so you should always double check.
