7. Bibliographic Citation: Reality #1: YOU HAVE TO DO IT! Reality #2: MUST follow formal Rules! 3 basic styles of citations: APA, MLA, Chicago. Your job is to apply the existing rules to your type of information resource...you must know how to follow these rules.

9. Bibliographic Citation: • Purpose: • Avoid claim of plagiarism (issue of Academic Honesty). • Acknowledge other people’s work that you consulted. • Tell other people where they can find information you consulted. • Let other people know what sources exist. • If these don’t matter to you...return to Reality #1

10. Bibliographic Citation: Reality #1: YOU HAVE TO DO IT! ALL analytical papers require citations. You have to accept that you must learn how to do it correctly...NO INDIVIDUAL CREATIVITY.

11. Bibliographic Citation: • Good News: • Manuals exist for APA, MLA, Chicago Style that have EXPLICIT instructions and examples for how to cite each type of source...NO ONE does this from memory. • Information needed in citation is usually right in front of your face...if you know where to look. • Train yourself to pay attention to this information (know you will need it). • Sites that exist that will automatically build citations.

12. Bibliographic Citation: • Bad News: • MUST follow formal citation directions EXACTLY...all small details matter. • Will take time when you first start...tedious...frustrating. • Either all right or it is wrong. • Many professors are a stickler for precision. • YOU may not use automated citation sites for this project...output only as good as input...must know if system did it right...know what was supposed to be in citation. • ONLY way to get good at this is doing it by hand.

13. What kinds of small details: • Order of name. • Capitalization of some words and not others. • When to underline, use quotation marks, use italics in titles. • Punctuation—when to use coma, colon, parentheses and/or period. • What order do all the parts go in. • Spacing within a citation and between citation. • How to order final citations list. • Indentation.
