Indians of North America: Citing Sources

All of these guides are from the Online Writing Lab (OWL) at Purdue. 

Footnotes are a way of giving credit to your sources. Each one points from your text to an entry in your bibliography.

To insert a footnote in Word:

1. Place your cursor where you want the footnote to go.
2. Under the References tab, choose Insert Footnote. This will place the superscript number at that place and open a space at the bottom of the page to type the note.

Never created an annotated bibliography before? Check out this guide from the OWL at Purdue.

The University of British Columbia Library has a good visual depiction of how to write a good evaluative annotation.
