 Conduct Web searches ONLY AFTER you have found and used quality database articles. Warning: For high-quality articles, sites often ask you to pay for a subscription service. Don’t! The same articles are usually available for free in the Rice Library! Web searches may provide timeliness. ◦ Google Scholar sources are fine, but often dated. ◦ Often you can trust org and edu sources. Remember, the com extension is trying to sell you something! ◦ Wikipedia is not permitted. ◦ Avoid sources without authors or dates. ◦ Avoid biased sources.

Warning: Don’t pay for EasyBib services. EasyBib is also available on the Web, but only for MLA form. You want APA.  EasyBib in the Rice Library may help you with the APA form for Web articles.  library/ library/  Click on “Cite it” under Tools.
