Research and Citation Help

Here you will find a wealth of information to help you with research.  This first one , The Purdue Owl, tells you how to research, organize and write a successful paper.

Purdue OWL
 Below is the Citation machine. This will actually do an automatic citation if you type in the name of the book, article, or website.  It will also walk you through the process and ask for the correct information and punctuate for you!  It also has other helpful tools. It even has a button for Grammarly so you can check your own paper for plagiarism (too much "borrowed" information) so you can tweak your paper.   REMEMBER, you still have to read and hit the "make citation" button.
