Good Citations

When completing essays and assignments, are you continually forgetting to record the bibliographic details of books you use? "It had a red cover" may not be much help when you try and find that good one again.  

Perhaps you found a great quote for your essay from an online journal article and have no idea how to use it in your work and provide a correct citation for it.


Is your idea of a bibliography a page of indecipherable Google URLs? Really??? 


Maybe after reading the above you are thinking, "I don't even know what a citation is."


Then perhaps it's time you used an online citation/bibliography generator. There are many out there,  but some of our favourites are EasyBib, BibMe and RefMe.


In our most recent Library Hack session, Ms Mileto showed how to set up a RefMe account and demonstrated some of the features it includes. Click here to see her Prezi!


Choose the best one for you and get organised, keep a record of your research and produce credible work!
