...Indexes and Bibliographies Indexes and bibliographies are the mainstay of any library because they help you identify and locate a single book or journal article from among the millions published. The single most important bibliography in any library is its online catalog. As with all other information types, there are many specialized indexes and bibliographies unique to business topics. These can be very useful in a literature search to fi nd authors and titles of prior works on the topic of interest. Skill in searching bibliographic databases is essential for the business researcher. For the novice or less skilled, we provide two appendices at the end of this chapter. The fi rst, “Bibliographic Database Searches,” reviews the process of searching. The second, “Advanced Searches,” reveals the more advanced techniques of skilled searchers. Dictionaries Dictionaries are so ubiquitous that they probably need no explanation. We all use them to verify spelling or grammar usage or to defi ne terms. In business, as in every fi eld, there are many specialized dictionaries that defi ne words, terms, or jargon unique to a discipline. Most of these specialized dictionaries include in their word lists information on people, events, or organizations that shape the discipline. They are also an excellent place to fi nd acronyms. A growing number of dictionaries and glossaries (terms in a specialized fi eld, area, or topic plus their defi nitions) are now available on the Web...

Collecting Bibliographic Details Note down the full bibliographic details of the source from wh ich the information is taken, including the relevant page number(s). This information is the basis of a citation or reference . In the case of a book , ‘bibliogra phical details’ refers to: author/editor, year of publication, title, edition, volume number, place of publication and publisher as found on the front and back of the title page. (Not all of these details will necessarily be applicable). In the case of a journal article the details required include: author of the article, year of publication, title of the article, title of the journal, volume and issue number of the journal, and page numbers. For all electronic information , in addition to the above you sh ould note the DOI (Digital Object Identifier) if one exists, and if one does not exist, the web address (URL) of the database you found the article in. Fo r more details see the DOI Information Sheet. 2. In - Text Citations A citation inserted at the appropriate place within the text of the document is called an in - text citation. This usually takes the form of the name of the aut hor, followed by the year of publication. Two acceptable forms of in - text citations are: Miller and Collins (2009) - use and when family names are...

...Journal Citations—Clearing Up Some Confusion Question When I use Chamberlain’s virtual library to research topics, most of the articles are obtained through use of the EBSCOhost database. In the virtual library, when I ask for the APA citation for the reference, the information always includes “Retrieved from EBSCOhost” as the proper format. My instructor insists that I cannot use “Retrieved from EBSCOhost” or other databases in my reference lists. My instructor tells me I have to use a DOI number or the URL of the journal’s home page. Most of the articles I find don’t have DOI numbers. I have to go looking for journal home pages and URLs, but some are difficult to find and sometimes I am not certain a journal has a home site. What am I supposed to do—especially when it really was retrieved from EBSCOhost and I have no idea where (the source from which) the library obtained these articles? Answer The Chamberlain library does not obtain the articles; the library purchases access to various bibliographic databases such as EBSCOhost and CINAHL. These databases supply the search engines and the full-text journals. The software that shows different citation formats comes from the database service (e.g., EBSCO) and has not been updated to reflect the sixth edition. It is, at present, providing incorrect information. Refer to the APA manual for the correct format. APA advises that if you don’t find a DOI number, you need to go out to the Internet and search for the journal. (Use...

...date should appear in this form: day, month, year—no commas. All margins are one inch. All works cited (including both primary and secondary sources) should appear at the end of the paper on its own page. It will be called the Works Cited page, and the words “Works Cited” will appear at the top of the page, centered, with no other formatting. Then you will list the bibliographic information of all works cited, alphabetically by author or first word in the entry. The Works Cited page is also double-spaced, within and between each bibliographic entry. Be sure that each entry is left justified on the first line, and subsequent lines are indented five spaces (one TAB). Follow standard MLA practice for bibliographic entries. When you directly quote, or even if you paraphrase, the language of a primary or secondary source, you cite that source parenthetically. The following sentence is an example of an MLA-style parenthetical reference: A consideration of the importance of self-reliance must understand that, “Because it is my name!” (Miller 143). Note that the PERIOD appears AFTER the parenthetical citation, which includes the author and the page number but no...

...* Research Paper 1: The first paper is due by Monday, April 9, 11:59 p.m. You MAY use sources outside of the Liberty Search Engine (and are encouraged to do so). Also you may use scholarly books and not just journal articles. You should avoid using generic websites that do not appear scholarly in nature. A good rule of thumb is that if a website does not have an author, it is not a good source. Good online material has also usually been published in print at some point. Google Scholar and JSTOR are great places to search, as well as the online encyclopedias I've shown you. Always feel free to send me an email if you have questions about sources or formatting. You are to write a 5-page research paper (12 point, double spaced, Time New Roman font, 1-inch margins on all sides), using at least three scholarly sources (not including the textbook), focusing on the key events and movements that were influential in the recognition of the canonical books. You should focus primarily on the canonization of the New Testament, though it is acceptable to include some information on the Old Testament. In addition, look at the methods and the process employed by individuals and councils in the NT canonization process, and how/why they deemed certain books as the inspired word of God. Please note that this paper is to be about the canonical books of the Bible, not the canon laws of the Catholic Church. These are two different subjects. Also, note that the formation of the NT Canon is the...

Failure to indicate your sources could easily be taken for plagiarism (literary theft). The purpose of the referencing system is to describe your sources in an accurate and consistent manner and to indicate within the text of your paper where particular sources were used.

...finding from someone’s work. This establishes the authority of your work and acknowledges the researchers and writers you have drawn upon in your paper. It is necessary to cite your sources each time you: • reproduce an author’s exact words (quote); that is, copy word for word directly from a text. Page numbers must be included in the in-text citation when quoting directly. • use your own wording (summarise or paraphrase) to explain or discuss what someone has said. Page numbers should be provided if the summarised or paraphrased material appears in specific pages or sections of a work. If you copy an entire table, chart, diagram or graph or if you take only some of the data contained in such sources, you must provide a reference. Sources such as journals, books, encyclopedias, computer programs and software, information from the internet, reports, newspapers, interviews, radio and television must be cited in the body of your paper and detailed in a reference list at the end. Information from Deakin study guides and readers must also be acknowledged.

...541.440.4640 | www.ucclibrary.com How to create Reference Lists in APA Style Different disciplines of learning require different styles of bibliographic citations. Nursing, education, psychology, and others often use the American Psychological Association (APA) style. For more examples, see the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 6th ed (REF 808.02 P), available at the UCC Library. Reference to an Entire Book: TIPS: • Find the example below, that best fits your item. If you don't find what you are looking for, see pages 180-216 of the APA manual. • Always use a “hanging indent”-- indent (tab) every line except the first. • Do not write out the authors' first or middle name, just initials. Also do not include credentials, for example, M. D. or Ph. D. • If the author has a suffix (like Jr. or III), after the author's initials, put a comma followed by the suffix. • If you can't find a copyright date, write the date like this: (n.d.). • Type the book title in italics. If you are handwriting your citations, underline the title since you can not write in italics. • Notice that only the first word in the title and the first word in the subtitle are capitalized. Also, remember to capitalize proper nouns. • If there is more than one city of publication, use the first city listed that is in the U.S. • For major cities, you can just write the name of the city. For smaller, less known cities, include the two letter abbreviation for the state. • You may leave...

...because I dint know that question marks are used when you quote someone else work. The question marks are used to show that the work belongs to someone else and not my own writings. When quoting a source, it’s recommended to use the quote exactly the way it appears because no one would like to be misquoted. After learning this concept, I was now able to answer the question correctly in post-test quiz. Another challenging question was question was the 4th question. The question was testing on citation as a tool to avoid plagiarism. From the information given on citation, it’s highly recommended that any time you quote someone’s words whether printed, spoken or sung, it’s vital to cite them. Question 5 was still testing on citation and I dint answer it correctly. I got to learn that proverbs don’t need to be cited since they are common knowledge. Another question that challenged me during the test was question eight which tested on whether songs or lyrics should be cited. It was clear that citation was necessary in this case as long as someone’s ideas or words are utilized irrespective of its form. The last question was yet another challenging problem in trying to avoid plagiarism. The date of George Washington birthday was not to be cited since it’s...
