You have chosen a person for research. You will be using books, hard copy encyclopedias, multi-media encyclopedias, and the Internet. Sometimes the Internet can be a bit overwhelming and not really all that helpful. There is too much information or information that you can't understand. That wastes precious time and can cause frustration. We have created this resource page with sites to use in your research.

Bibliographic citation formats to use when you are writing your bibliography.
