"College & Career Readiness" bibliography

"A curated bibliography of quality digital image collections spanning ~85 subjects, including ~950 digital collections, that have been culled primarily from the LibGuides Community, and several subject areas have been further refined by 20 subject liaison librarians at the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities.  To browse by 8 general discipline areas see: https://www.lib.umn.edu/media/imageguide (non-editable).  The goal of the site is to share this work with the visual resources community, hopefully making the resource stronger through participation for others to repurpose."

Beth Gourley of ASMSA reviews it: "... like many cite generators the citation generation is sloppy, and it needs a good deal of editing....when using citation generators, NoodleTools gets the citation format correct."

Enter data and this programme generates a reference for your bibliography - abridged or full Harvard style.

Like academic libraries, school libraries rely primarily on their parent institution for financial support. The latest nation-wide expenditures figures for school library media centers in public schools comes from Characteristics of Public Elementary and Secondary School Library Media Centers in the United States: Results From the 2011-12 Schools and Staffing Survey published in August 2013. The "Selected Findings" summary in the beginning of the Adobe Reader PDF version notes -- -- During the 2010-11 school year, public school library media centers spent an average of $9,340 for all information resources [Information resources include such items as books, periodicals, audio/visual materials, database licensing, and software. They do not include salaries, computer hardware, or audio/visual equipment.] (table 4). This includes an average of $6,010 for the purchase of books and $490 for the purchase of audio/video materials [Includes all copies of any tape, CD, DVD, or Blu-ray]. -- The number of holdings in public library media centers per 100 students was 2,188 for book titles and 81 for audio/video materials at the end of the 2010-11 school year (table 5).

Citelighter goes way beyond citation. If you pay for a subscription, it includes the Questia database, and incredible teacher tools for analyzing student writing and research. If you want to use pdfs you need to operate in Mozilla. The citelighter toolbar seems to interact well with our intense firewall.
