Citing the sources you consult and use is very important.
A bibliography maker guidance tool such as Easybib makes the job easier. Create an Easybib account while at school to receive the school version of Easybib. Once your account is made you can use it anywhere. http://www.wayzata.k12.mn.us/Page/8570
Many of the databases featured in this presentation create the citation for you. Simply copy and paste into Google Docs or Word.
Some people have found the bibliography maker in Word to be user friendly as well.
