STUDENT'S GUIDE TO WRITING COLLEGE PAPERS
By Kate L. Turabian. "This guide should be in every high-school, college, and public library"—Booklist. The guide is organized into three sections that lead students through the process of developing and revising a paper. Part 1, "Writing Your Paper," guides students through the research process with discussions of choosing and developing a topic, validating sources, planning arguments, writing drafts, avoiding plagiarism, and presenting evidence in tables and figures. Part 2, "Citing Sources," begins with a succinct introduction to why citation is important and includes sections on the three major styles students might encounter in their work—Chicago, MLA, and APA—all with full coverage of electronic source citation. Part 3, "Style," covers all matters of style important to writers of college papers, from punctuation to spelling to presenting titles, names, and numbers. Classroom tested and filled with relevant examples. Grades 9 and up. University of Chicago Press. 288 pages. Fourth Edition. ©2010.
