JSTOR Information and Advice

Here is a link to the citations for JSTOR.

Make sure you are also going to have all of your copies for your verification stack ready for Monday. This will include copies of ALL of your Huck Finn Quotations. If you have not already made copies, you will need to make sure you still have your book so you can do them over the weekend.

Also make sure you have made copies of any citations from essays in my room. I will not be here over the weekend. Obviously.

Remember you will arrange these copies in the order that they appear in your essay. Highlight direct quotations and page number; box highlight paraphrases and page numbers.

Research Paper Help

On the Reasearch paper page, I have placed the MLA online guides at the top of the left hand side. The Abel Scribe site has good information about ellipses, which we will be discussing tomorrow in class. It's listed under "delete parts of quotes".

Today we looked at two poems by Stephen Crane in your book, and 3 other Crane poems listed below. These poems can be found online (Type in the poem title + Crane). We also began discussing the concept of a Citation Outline for your paper which is due on Monday. Some of the formatting did not survive the move to Google docs, so do the best you can with it.
