Evaluating and Recording Sources • Evaluate the source. • Make a bibliography card. • Find the appropriate bibliography form. • In the top right-hand corner of the card, record a source number and circle it. • At the bottom of the card, record the place where you found the source. • If the source has a catalog number, record that number as well. • Stack the card with the rest of the cards that make up your working bibliography.
Preparing Note Cards • Direct Quotation: repeats the words of a source exactly. Quotation marks are used around the quoted material. • Paraphrase: states an idea expressed in a source, but not in the same words. • Summary: condenses an idea expressed in a source. In other words, it says the same thing in fewer and different words.
Plagiarism • Plagiarism is the act of intentionally or unintentionally presenting work done by someone else as though it were your own. • If you turn in a research paper, or any assignment related to the research project that is plagiarized (or not your own work), you will receive a zero for your grade.
