Directions for using bibme.org  

Directions:

  • As you are researching, save the URL for each site you find useful.
  • When you get to the site bibme.org, click on the middle tab marked "website."
  • Copy the URL (in the address bar) for the site you are taking information from.
  • Click on "Load Info."
  • Look on the website you want to use for a sponsor or publisher and date created.  You can often find that information at the bottom of the page.  The sponsor/publisher will not be a company that does web design.   It will often be a company, corporation, or individual. If there is not a current date last updated, you could use the copyright date -- again at the bottom of the page.   
  • Fill in the information you find in the appropriate spaces.
  • Look for an author (writer) of the information.  Add that.
  • Click on Add to My Bibliography.
  • Look in the right hand column for the bibliography entry created for you. Copy that and save it or add it to the last slide of your PowerPoint.

____________________________

You need to use bibme to create bibliography entries -- unless you are using an online encyclopedia or other source that gives them a bibliography entry at the bottom of the web page!

A bibliography entry (which goes on the last slide of the PowerPoint) looks like this:
Scott, Westerfeld. " westerblog." westerblog. Scott Westerfeld, 31 Oct. 2011. Web. 1 Nov. 2011.
