Step 2: Proper Attribution What to include: display the copyright notice © and copyright ownership information if this is shown in the original source adequately identify the source of each work; provide a full bibliographic description where available (including author, title, publisher, and place and date of publication) (the basic idea here is that a person who wants to should be able to go directly to the source where you got the material) Where to include it: Directly below the media element At the bottom of the page including the media element On a credits page (the basic idea here is that you must make sure that the elements you are citing are easily identifiable – for example if you have 3 pictures of Abraham Lincoln in the credits it must be clear which citation goes with which picture.)
