Resource of the Week - BibMe

BibMe is a free automated bibliography maker, supporting MLA, APA, Chicago, and Turabian formats. BibMe supports several different source types, including books, magazines, newspapers, websites, journals, films, interviews, lectures, radio, television, encyclopedias, and photographs. Users may manually enter source information or take advantage of the AutoFill feature, which pulls bibliographical information from sources such as Amazon.

After registering with the site, bibliographies may be saved to the user's "My Bibliographies" page where they may be edited, shared, or downloaded. Users may also tag their citations with keywords that will help to identify them at a later time. A Citation Guide is also available, providing rules for in-text citations and bibliographical references.
