Embedded Files
A Research Log is a worksheet that you can use to fill in information about each source you are going to use. This information is called bibliographic information.
If you have never created a citation on your own, it is a good idea to start with a Research Log so you understand the different parts of it:
● Author (or Authors)
● Title of the Source (Article, Book, Video, Webpage, etc.)
● Publication Name (Anthology, Journal, Magazine, etc.)
● Database Name (Britannica School, Infobase World History, etc.)
● Page Numbers (If an article, book section, etc.)
● Volume/Edition/Issue Number (If an article or book)
● Copyright or Date Published/Created
● Website Title
● URL (Link to online source)
● Search Terms Used (Remember our advice in Search Tips?)
● Other Information (Anything else helpful to you!)
● Author Biography/Credentials (Who is it and why do you trust them?)
● Medium of Publication (Print, Digital, etc.)
