EASY BIB
Beginners guide to Easy Bib for MNPS students
Easy Bib
Easy Bib is available to all MNPS Students & Faculty. You may think that this is a High School or College tool, but this is a great tool to use with Middle School as well. I used this with my own 5th grader in his research project and was amazed at how easy it was for him to cite his sources and create an annotated bibliography. To create an account for free, you must access Internet from any MNPS school.
If there is a MNPS logo, you can SIGN UP for free.

This is where you can choose MLA or APA. Most teachers require MLA. Some advanced course choose to cite in APA in the 11th & 12th grade

At this point you can add in citations.

Database Citation Tools
You can add in citations from anything, but the easiest citations come straight from verified databases with citation tools. Here is a list of Databases that have direct citation tools that we have access to.
All MNPS Schools have access to Tennessee Electronic Library (TEL)
