Using easybib.com

To practice, open cavereading.blogspot.com in a second tab or window so you can still read these directions,  and then go to http://www.easybib.com/
  1. Check to make sure that the tab that is showing is the tab for websites.
  2. Open (in another tab or window) to the website for which you want to make a citation (bibliography entry).
  3. Copy the URL.
  4. Past the URL into the space provided (where it says "Enter website address or keywords to cite."
  5. Click on the link marked "Cite this."
  6. Check at the bottom of the page for a date last revised or a copyright date.
  7.   If you find one, fill in that information at the "Electronically published:" box.
  8. Click on "Create Citation."
  9. Your citation has been made, and you can copy it to a document or PowerPoint, or you can click on "Save as word document" and save that to your flash drive.
  10. If you wish, you can prepare the citations for all of your sources (as long as you don't close easybib), and then just make a document or copy all at once.  
Hand in, with your website evaluations, your list of three or five citations.
