Bibliography Guide (I will be going over this in class on Monday, so don't worry too much if you don't get it right away).
Please put your bibliography on a separate page with the word BIBLIOGRAPHY centred at the top. Double-space for and after each entryPlease list your entries in alphabetical order starting at 'a'. If a bibliography entry takes up more than one line, indent each of the following lines of the entry until it's finished, then move on to the next one.
Citation Rules:
After being asked more than a few times how do do a proper set of citations for history classes, I, your humble and munificent teacher, have decided to put a few examples up so you can see with your own eyes (antennae, feet, thorax, or what have you, depending on species or inclination) how to properly cite photographs or written work.
Books:
References to an entire book should include the following elements:
- author(s) or editor(s)
- the complete title
- edition, if indicated
- place of publication
- the shortened name of the publisher
- date of publication

wow...finally you post this up >.>
good job mr kasaam...
at least better late then never...
and mr kasaam...are we getting the library time you promised us?
and im Neruson just incase you got confused >.>
i forgot to ask you on the last post...how do you do a bibliography for a website? like a website that holds infomation but you need to click different buttons to get different info but on the same major topic...like careercruising or jobfutures.ca?
since both of them arent considered an online encyclopedia
If the information you use is from different URLs, post each URL individually. If it's one URL for all the information, then just post that one URL.
As far as library time goes, if you're in my morning class, you're getting library time tomorrow. If you're in my afternoon class, I've had a problem getting you guys focused enough to go through a lesson on a regular basis, I don't know that taking you all to the library is worth it for the potential effort I'd have to put in to make sure everybody's on track and doing what they're supposed to instead of doing... other crap.
mr kassam, (for gr10 careers) if a website has interesting information, but it's in picture format are we allowed to crop and use the part we want? ...since its just like a picture... and if we are allowed to do that, do we have to put a bibliography for the pictures we used?
Sure you can crop and use pictures, but you still have to put the source URL in your bibliography.
wait...so if we got information from the job discription part of career cruising and the earnings from career cruising then we have to post two urls?
Umm...do we need to post URLs for pictures that we use? like the picture is from a search engine like google images but its kinda different...because this search engine is where you can upload pics and it stays on the site as part of the site...i know this sounds confusing so ill add the image search engine which i am talking about -->> http://www.deviantart.com
Mr.Kassam, how do you cite an interview into the bibliography?
