Reliable Sources for Library Research Projects

Let’s say you have been assigned a research project on Sylvia Plath… “Sylvia Plath” Find a poem Copy and paste it You’re done!?!

Pounding Headache Why dost my head poundeth so? Is it the noise? The light? The constant hammering of the Nickelodeon channel? Why are the Rugrats such homely children? Why does Angelica's mom talk out of the side of her mouth? I don't know. These questions plague me. Why do people shop in places called "Barn" Pottery Barn, Dress Barn, Are they cows? Why do cows need to shop? Are they slaves to labels? Damn that incidious Pottery Barn catalog. It draws me in. My head poundeth. Tylenol, my head is yours. Sylvia Plath Copyright ©2007 Sylvia Plath ---Taken from On January 24, 2007 Here’s the poem you found---

So what’s the problem? It’s a poem, it’s on the internet, and it’s copyrighted!

Is it accurate information? Searching a little more…

--from shadowpoetry.com Jan.23, 2007 Sylvia Plath Born: October 27, 1932 // Died: February 11, 1963

If she died in 1963, how could she have a poem copyrighted in 2007? The answer is…she didn’t write it.

How can you find valid sources? --books from the library --reliable search engines
