Depending on the subject area that you are working in and your instructor’s preference, there are a few citation styles that you could be asked to use for this. Luckily, the Empire State College Library is here to help.<br /><br />Once you know what style your instructor requires for your assignment, you should visit the library homepage at <a href="http://www.esc.edu/library">www.esc.edu/library</a>. If you look in the center column on the website, you will see the heading “Cite Your Sources.” Choose your citation style from the list, APA, MLA or More Citation Styles &amp; Info (includes Chicago/Turabian as well as Citation Basics and Citation Tools).<br /><br />Under APA and MLA, you will see citatation style guides listed as Hacker and OWL. These are 2 very helpful sources that will help get you through citing your sources. If you have any questions, you can always contact the library. We are here to help. We can’t check your work but we can help you figure out how to format your citation for a particular source or help you find the citation information if you forgot to write it all down when you first found your resource.<br /><br />APA:<br /><br /><img align="left" src="http://commons.esc.edu/libraryblog/files/2011/04/hackerAPA.jpg" />With Hacker’s APA Citation Style Guide you will see a purple menu on the left side of the screen. To view how to do your in-text citations, click on APA in-text citations. If you need to know how to do your list of references, click on APA list of references and there will be a list of many possible types of references and how you need to cite them. If you would like to see a sample research paper using APA style, click on the link for Sample research paper: APA style.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><img align="left" src="http://commons.esc.edu/libraryblog/files/2011/04/APAOWL1.jpg" />The OWL’s APA citation style guide also has a menu on the left side of the screen. Their menu is much more detailed. The menu includes general format information which has a sample title page. It also includes In-Text citation information. Below that, you will see a link for Footnotes and Endnotes. Then there are 7 links to help you with your Reference List. They start with Basic Rules and then are broken down by resource type. If you are using items from the online library, you probably want to start with Reference List: Electronic Sources. If you would like to see a sample paper, scroll down a bit on the meny until you see Sample APA Paper. That link will show you a sample paper.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />MLA:<br /><br /><img align="left" src="http://commons.esc.edu/libraryblog/files/2011/04/MLAHacker.jpg" />With Hacker’s Citation Style Guide for MLA, you will see a blue menu on the left side of the page. For help with your in-text citations, click on that in the menu. For MLA works cited information, click on the MLA list of works cited link on the menu and there will be a list of many possible types of references and how you need to cite them. If you would like to see a sample paper, click on Sample research paper: MLA style.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><img align="left" src="http://commons.esc.edu/libraryblog/files/2011/04/MLAOWL1.jpg" />The OWL’s MLA citation style guide has general information on how to format your paper on the first page. Next on the menu which is on the left side of the page, you will see MLA In-Text Citations: The Basics. This will help you with how to format your in-text citations. After that, the meny includes how to format Quotations as well as Endnotes and Footnotes. For your works cited page, you will see 5 different items listed in the menu based on the type of resource you are using. If you are using an item from the online library, you most likely want to start with MLA Words Cited: Electronic Resources. If you would like to view a sample paper or works cited page, scroll down until you see MLA Sample Paper or MLA Sample Works Cited on the menu.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />We have many other resources to help you with your citations on our Cite Your Sources page which you can find here: <a href="http://subjectguides.esc.edu/citing">http://subjectguides.esc.edu/citing</a><br /><br /><br /><br />___________________________<br />Read the Library Blog at its new home - <a href="http://commons.esc.edu/libraryblog">http://commons.esc.edu/libraryblog</a><br />Questions?

These articles look like information sources, but they exist solely to get people to view an ad. They are written in a hurry by underpaid freelancers who often have no knowledge of the subjects they write about. Because the objective is to cram keywords in there, accuracy is optional. </div><div><br /></div><div>But with the change in Google's search algorithm, those articles will no longer show up in your results lists, mixed in with the legitimate sites.

They believe (probably correctly) that they can make much more money if they sell a product - cheap e-books - to consumers and prevent libraries from getting it. </div><div><br /></div><div>A library could buy the latest <i>New York Times</i> bestseller at a local bookstore and put it on their shelves, but it can't do the same thing in the Amazon Kindle Store or iTunes. The difference is that there is simply no way to limit how many people can read a paper copy of a book, but there <b>are </b>ways to limit how many people can read a digital copy. Books that you purchase yourself for your computer or e-book reader have a license that restricts how you can share the book, and sometimes there are technological limitations (called Digital Rights Management or DRM) as well. </div><div><br /></div><div>E-books that are available to libraries have a license that allows us to let multiple people read them. Sometimes only one person is allowed access at a time, but most of the time we get a license to let an infinite number of people read at once. These licenses are often five or ten times more expensive than what you'd pay for the same book for yourself. What's more, you can't just download the book to read on your own computer or e-reader; you have to read it online. This is so you can't make illegal copies and share or sell them. </div><div><br /></div><div>And on top of that, many books that you would want to read as library e-books simply aren't an option for us to acquire. Either the publisher is convinced that they can make more by requiring people who want to read the e-book to purchase their own copy, or they realize that not enough libraries will purchase the e-book to pay for the costs of creating it. </div><div><br /></div><div>So if you have been wondering why we often have to say no when you request a particular e-book title be added to our collection, this is why. It's a matter of economics and copyright law evolving at a slower pace than the expectations we've gotten from our day-to-day use of technology.</div><div><br /></div>_______________<div>Read this blog at its new location: <a href="http://commons.esc.edu/libraryblog">Library News and Tips</a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer">____________________ Follow ESCLibrary on Twitter!</div>http://esclibrary.blogspot.com/2011/02/different-kinds-of-e-books.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Sarah Morehouse)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3104038556435130613.post-6128891235697700981Mon, 14 Feb 2011 05:00:00 +00002011-02-14T00:00:03.497-05:00newsWhat is Open Access?<div>The term Open Access refers to scholarly articles that are available to be read without the reader having to pay for a subscription to a journal.</div><div><br /></div><div>Scholarly journals traditionally pay for the costs of operation by having the reader pay to access them (or having a library pay on the reader's behalf.) The problem with this is that scholarly journals have become so expensive that academic libraries are having trouble affording them. </div><div><br /></div><div>Open Access means that the costs of publishing an article are borne by somebody other than the reader. In some cases, the author pays to have an article published (once it is accepted, of course.) In other cases, research institutions pay for the costs of running a journal or an article repository, because they feel that it is their contribution to the academic community and will pay for itself in other ways. But however the costs are covered, Open Access means that the articles are available online for free, available to anyone who wants to read them.</div><div><br /></div><div>Note that this does not mean that they are in the public domain! Free to read does not mean free to put up on your own web site, or re-use as your own. </div><div><br /></div><div>So how do you access Open Access articles? Well, some of them are indexed in the Library's databases like any other articles. But there are two main ways to search for Open Access Articles: </div><div><ul><li><a href="http://www.doaj.org/">Directory of Open Access Journals</a> (DOAJ) has a search engine that will let you search for your topic keywords across all the peer reviewed (scholarly) Open Access journals that are out there. </li><li><a href="http://scholar.google.com.library.esc.edu">Google Scholar</a> lets you search across all articles indexed in Google. That will include articles that are only available in subscription databases like the Library has, and also scholarly article repositories maintained by universities and other research institutions.</li></ul></div><div>The Open Access Movement is growing every year. When I was in grad school, it was still a little controversial - people wondered if anyone would ever feel they could rely on scholarship found for free on the web. Now Open Access journals like <i>Public Library of Science</i> are leaders in their subject areas. It turned out that what mattered wasn't the heft of a print journal, or the cost of a subscription, but the quality of scholarship and the reliability of the peer review process.</div>_______________<div>Read this blog at its new location: <a href="http://commons.esc.edu/libraryblog">Library News and Tips</a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer">____________________ Follow ESCLibrary on Twitter!</div>http://esclibrary.blogspot.com/2011/02/what-is-open-access.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Sarah Morehouse)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3104038556435130613.post-6032227475163872477Mon, 07 Feb 2011 05:00:00 +00002011-02-07T00:00:01.858-05:00newsWhy Can't I Get Broadband Internet At Home?<div>Most areas of New York state do get broadband, even if only from one provider. (In my area, it's Time Warner or Verizon DSL.) But if you live in a rural area, you might not be able to get broadband internet access. Why is this, when so much of daily life is now conducted online, in ways that just aren't supported by the old copper wire connections? </div><div><br /></div><div>While broadband would be even helpful to the people who live in sparsely populated areas than to those of us who can easily travel to libraries, colleges, stores, banks, and other services, there's no way the internet service providers could turn enough of a profit providing service to them. They would have to lay many miles of cable and send trucks out to service those remote locations, and all that for a few hundred new customers? It wouldn't even begin to pay for itself.</div><div><br /></div><div>And broadband internet is not covered by public utility law. That means that the government can't create incentives or penalties to pressure internet service providers (like ComCast, Verizon DSL, and Time Warner) to provide service in sparsely populated areas.</div><div><br /></div><div>If you are interested in this issue, check out this link: <a href="http://www.mediaaccess.org/">http://www.mediaaccess.org/</a></div>_______________<div><div>Read this blog at its new location: <a href="http://commons.esc.edu/libraryblog">Library News and Tips</a></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer">____________________ Follow ESCLibrary on Twitter!</div>http://esclibrary.blogspot.com/2011/02/why-cant-i-get-broadband-internet-at.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Sarah Morehouse)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3104038556435130613.post-8538000149808714189Mon, 31 Jan 2011 05:00:00 +00002011-01-31T10:47:39.309-05:00newsUnintentional Plagiarism<div>It's common knowledge that if you crib part or all of your paper from someone else, whether a fellow student, a web site or a published article or book, it's plagiarism. It's a serious violation of <a href="http://www.esc.edu/academicintegrity">academic integrity</a> and carries major penalties. Fortunately, it's very easy to avoid those penalties: don't cheat and you'll be fine!</div><div><br /></div><div>However it's also possible to commit plagiarism unintentionally, and that can get you in trouble too. Unintentional plagiarism means that you didn't mean to cheat, but you still committed a violation of academic integrity by failing to acknowledge the sources of your ideas, or by being too dependent on someone else's ideas. </div><div><ul><li>Forgetting to cite, citing incompletely, or citing the wrong source.</li><li>Paraphrasing without a citation. It's often said that if you put the other person's ideas into your own words, you don't need to cite. That's not true!!! You must cite, even if you didn't quote them word for word.</li><li>Relying too much on your source material, especially paraphrasing too much (even with citations.) Being overly dependent on another person's ideas means that your paper isn't original enough to satisfy the requirements of an academic assignment. This usually happens for one of two reasons, or a little of each: either you didn't have enough different sources, or you didn't include enough of your own analysis and interpretation.</li></ul></div><div><br /></div><div>If you are struggling with research and writing, there are a number of places to turn: </div><div><ul><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif; line-height: 19px; "><span class="Apple-style-span"><a href="http://www.esc.edu/askalibrarian" mce_href="http://www.esc.edu/askalibrarian" target="_blank"><span mce_style="font-weight: normal;" style="font-weight: normal; ">Ask a Librarian</span></a><span mce_style="font-weight: normal;" style="font-weight: normal; "> - a librarian can help you if you are having trouble finding resources and research materials on your topic.

Not so much because of the technology, which is practically there already, but because of the laws and business considerations that restrict the sharing of content. </div><div style="text-align: left; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: left; ">In the mean time, we have <a href="http://subjectguides.esc.edu/all" target="_blank">Subject Guides</a>. These are mini-websites that the librarians put together to make it easier to do research. Subject Guides bring together all the different search tools and sources that are useful for a particular subject area or family of topics, and they organize those tools and sources by type. In every Subject Guide you will find tabs for Reference, Journal Articles, Books, Multimedia and Web Sites. Under each tab will be various search tools and resources, each with a brief but useful description. </div><div style="text-align: left; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: left; ">You'll also find a chat box so you can ask a librarian any question that occurs to you while you work. </div><div style="text-align: left; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: left; ">It's important to note that the Subject Guide is not the place for you to do the actual keyword searching. With a few exceptions, it doesn't contain any useful content in itself. What it does is link you to the places that you can go to search.</div><div style="text-align: left; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: left; ">To get to the Subject Guides, either go to <a href="http://subjectguides.esc.edu/all" target="_blank">http://subjectguides.esc.<wbr>edu/all</a>, or go to the library web site and click the link for Resources By Subject. </div><div style="text-align: left; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: left; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial; ">The Library Blog is moving!

You can use their online catalog to find out what books they have and where to find them in the stacks.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial; font-size: small; "><div><span><span style="font-size: 16px; "><span><span><div style="text-align: left; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: left; ">WorldCat is a catalog of catalogs. It's a database that contains the holdings </div><div style="text-align: left; ">of thousands of libraries - hundreds of millions of books, microform and multi</div><div style="text-align: left; ">media materials.</div><div style="text-align: left; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: left; ">You can get to it by going to <a href="http://www.esc.edu/worldcat" target="_blank">http://www.esc.edu/worldcat</a><wbr>. Once you're in, just do a keyword search. It's a huge database, so be as specific as you want with that search! Also be sure to specify Year, Audience, Content, Format and Language using the boxes provided.</div><div><div><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_METIbHVKS3M/TLRytVa0SmI/AAAAAAAAADw/lSGAmIIT7qo/s400/worldcat+search.png" border="0" alt="" style="text-align: left; display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; width: 400px; min-height: 347px; " /></div><div style="text-align: left; ">Now you'll see your search results. Click on the title of any one that you're interested in to see more information about it. If you scroll down, you will see "Find a copy in the library." Put in your zip code to let it know where you are. It will tell you what libraries have the book, and the list will be arranged so that the ones closest to you are at the top of the list. Below, you can see that my book is available from four SUNY libraries, one of which is only 45 minutes away.</div></div><div style="text-align: left; "><br /></div><div><img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_METIbHVKS3M/TLRzhXFRDkI/AAAAAAAAAD4/bUS3MExvwHI/s400/worldcat+find+in+a+library.png" border="0" alt="" style="text-align: left; display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; width: 400px; min-height: 204px; " /><div style="text-align: left; "><br /></div></div><div style="text-align: left; ">The Library Blog is moving!
