Q Locate 5 potential research sources for the topic you submitted as your final choice for the Research Essay. At least one of these needs to come from the school's library (electronic databases are fine). These are just to get you started. You won't have to use them in the final draft of the essay if they turn out to be duds. These should be 5 NEW sources. Don't include the one you wrote about in your Source Evaluation Essay. You don't have to tell me anything about the contents of these sources, and I won't know whether you've read them yet or not. Instead, I want you to create BOTH Works Cited (MLA) citations and References (APA) citations for each of the 5 sources you've found. You're welcome to use the pre-formatted citations available in the TCC library, if you find your sources there. Other good helpful tools for building citations are Son of Citation Machine Links to an external site.and EasyBib Links to an external site.. Here's additional guidance for finding the citations on sources located in the Pierce College library. Hint: it's really easy! Please note that many APA citations in our library are missing a crucial last element. If the APA version ends with a "doi" followed by lots of numbers, it's fine. If it doesn't have this, though, you will need to add the statement Retrieved from -name of database-. to the end of the citation. Example: Retrieved from Academic Search Premier. For more guidance about how to find these citations through our library, watch this brief video I made.
