I am in my fourth year of University Honouring in English. The correct MLA way is "I am not going"(35). The source comes at the end of a sentence. Ex: Bob said that he is "not going" to the dance illustrates his unwillingness to participate in social gatherings (35). There is a space between the sentence and the source if the quote is not the last thing in the line. If the source immediately follows the quote there is no space. "I am not going"(35). Good luck!

I recently read that if you wish to use a quote from a book, you should contact the publisher.  Many large publishers maintain a department that handles such requests since they have paid the author for the book's copyright.  They will require you to quote accurately and use the quote in a respectful way.  A public library reference desk may help you find the publisher's address so that you can send them a letter with your request.

This book is not going anwhere, it's "stationary".  \n\nThis is not a "not" book, it really IS a book. (note book)\n\nKids rule.\nLife is like a box of chocolates.  Someone always takes the nice ones first.\n\nRemember - Objects in mirror may appear closer than they actually are.\n\nBrushing your teeth keeps Jesus happy.\n\nNever eat yellow snow

You need to cite the source every time you use it for an idea or a direct quotation. However, it is NOT good to cite ONE source repeatedly while not citing others to support your assertions. Reliance on one source when you do research results in a book report, not research. The idea is to find and use as many resources as you can, but do NOT rely too much on only one. I hope this helps.\n\nResearch teacher.\n\nChow!!

If the lecture notes have been published you may cite them in the usual way eg Author, Date, Title, Journal, Publisher, page(s). The title would probably indicate that it was a lecture\nYou must of course restrict your quotation to a significant phrase or sentence or two and not quote whole chunks of the lecture.\nIf the notes have not been published I suggest you obtain permission from the lecturer and give details of when and where they were made. This would not count as one of your references as other people could not look up the source the themselves.

Start creatively with a little story or quote from the book.  Quotes work great as attention grabbers because then it seems like the paper is less like reading a paper on the book and more like reading the book itself.  I've never actually read this one so I can't give you any good quotes.  You may also start with a quote by someone famous.  Quotegeek.com has lots of searchable quotes.  Good luck!

Here's the rule.  If a book in its own binding (if it has its own spine), it's underlined.  If it does not have its own binding (if its in an anthology or something like that), it's in quotation marks.

If you're paraphrasing you put it in your own words (therefore quotation marks are not required).  You then must make a parenthetical reference (last name of author, followed by a comma, followed by a page number or date).  You must then also include a reference on a Bibliography, Reference or Works Cited page.  Make sure you use the correct formatting (this will depend on what referencing style you use--personally I prefer that my students use MLA).

Perhaps you could ask an actual question rather than copying directly from your book.  Sorry, but I won't write your essay.  You have to at least put forth some effort yourself.

If you are listing the source that you borrowed the information from, then it is not plagerizing, even if you didn't paraphrase it, because you are making the acknowledgment that the material is not yours.  However, if you are directly quoting a source, it is good form to set it apart, either using quotation marks or as a separate paragraph.\n\nIt is plagerizing when you borrow the material, but you try to pass it off as your own work.

If the author has a particular way of saying something you couldn't paraphrase or make better, then yes, use a quote.  Also, quote if you are refuting something in the book:\n\n"In "The Progressive Era: Look Where We Are Now!," M. Smartypants expresses the opinion that\n\n    "Quotes are for sissies, and since everyone quotes Abraham       \n    Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln was a sissy too." (p. 23)\n\nThis assessment is incorrect because Mr. Lincoln was not using the quotes himself; he was merely being quoted by others.  This is a prime example of the mis-attribution of quotations to famous figures, which was a leading cause of the Civil War (Smartypants, 1976) in the following ways . . ."\n\nThen at the end of your paper, you would cite M. Smartypants' book, edition, etc. so if someone wanted to look up your quotation on page 23 or your more general paraphrase of his concept from his 1976 book, they could do that.  You're doing a bibliography either way, but quoting allows you to use particular phrases, while paraphrasing allows you to condense whole pages and chapters down to one line.

You just need to cite the source of your quotes. There's a book called "Elements of Style" by E.B. White that is considered a standard of written English. You might want to consult that when citing your footnotes.
