Ever wonder how to document a web page in Chicago style? Or how about an instant message in MLA style? This book covers it all. It's an indispensable reference for any student or scholar who needs tips on performing electornic research and how to cite electronic references in MLA, APA, Chicago or CBE style.

As a writing teacher, I find this book very helpful in explaining research and documentation to my students. It presents basic research books, web sites, and indexes in almost every discipline, which makes it easy to send students working on any topic to the right starting point. There are dozens of books which explain documentation, but this is the best source I've seen for actual research tips.

Excellent resource in an age that requires research and documentation electronically! A must have for students.

Yep. Like my title says. I'm an older person returning to school with no clue as to how to document the electronic sources I used for my first paper. I mean, we used to just use the library card file.... How DO you document a government chart you found on-line??? I hunted everywhere for help and finally found this book in it's on-line version. I pulled my paper out of the fire before the deadline with the information I found in it. Now I want to have a hard copy for the next round of papers.

If you're returning to school and grew up before personal computers, you'll appreciate this book!

this book is a gem. i've been looking for books to do just MLA and APA styles mainly and this fits the bill. as a library science student, their research tips and evaluating resources are on par to what we do as librarians, just a compact except of one of us. it's very up to date with dealing with electronic resources and how to cite them properly. there's no need to buy anything else if you're looking for a simple citation style book.

I would have never thought this item was used. It was perfect and I was able to start my continued education on time with a short notice. The item was exactly as explained. They were fast for delivery and had no issues with anything. Thank you for providing a great discounted price opposed to buying the books new and spending a fortune.

I think very good book for citation and bibliography
