Resources

This page provides links to the electronic resources of the school library, a citation manager, and tutorials on how to use them. Some of these resources will require passwords to access, which unit coaches will need to hand out in a less public forum. 

School Library Resources

Schools implementing this lesson plan would typically insert a link to their school library's electronic resources here. For the purposes of this project, however, we have chosen to link to the electronic databases available through the Palo Alto City Library instead. In many school districts, students can use their school IDs to access the full suite of electronic databases available at their local public library as well. Clicking the image above will take students directly to the Palo Alto City eLibrary.

Citation Manager

Zoterobib Citation Manager

Zoterobib offers a fast, free citation management service that you can use to streamline the process of creating citations for source you find online. Citations are stored locally in your browser. Alternatively you can copy and paste them into your reference list as you create them. 

Remember to double-check the formatting of all automatically generated citations.  
Even machines make mistakes.
