We’ve reviewed a lot of bibliography makers here on Instructify, but BibMe may be the easiest to use. Like OttoBib, you can create a citation worthy of the MLA, APA, or Chicago style guides with nothing more than an ISBN number. BibMe takes it a few steps further, though, letting you search by the title or author of a work. Whereas OttoBib only worked for books, BibMe spits out citations for Web sites, journals, videos, newspapers, as well as “Other,” which I hope will allow me to use “Some guy I overheard at the mall” as a legitimate source.
When they’ve entered all their sources, BibMe will let your students save their bibliography online, or export it to Microsoft Word format, so they can just copy and paste right into their research papers. Best of all, the only thing BibMe costs is time, and not very much at that. When they’re faced with the prospect of spending hours writing a paper, anything you can do to save your students time will make you look like a hero. -BILL FERRIS
