You will
be using Noodletools.com to create your bibliography for your research paper. A
bibliography is a list of ALL the
sources you read when doing your research even if you did not use them for a
citation. A works cited page lists
only those sources you have cited in your paper. A citation tells the reader of
your paper exactly where an idea, concept, information or quotes comes from.
You might cite 4 or 5 sources but include 15 resources in your bibliography.
