Tips
for Researching and Citing
While at Northampton Community College, you'll get new ideas from many different places.
However, when ideas pass from person to person or source to source,
you are responsible for showing respect for the original source
by giving credit to it. Here are a few tips to keep you honest while
researching:
*Take
clear, accurate notes about where you found specific ideas.
*Write down the complete citation information for each item
you use.
*Use quotation marks when directly stating another person's
words.
*Always credit original authors for their information and
ideas. |
