The Bedford Researcher, Chapter Six


            In this chapter, it is all about managing information and taking notes. Starting off with managing information. During a research project that will be a great deal of accumulated information. Such as, notes, print outs from the Web, photocopies, books, magazines, and word documents. A great way to organize print information would be a filing system. Once you create this, stick to it, date your information, and a note to how it might contribute to your project.  Organization of digital information would be flash drives, copying and pasting, using email, using your phone, a voice recorder, saving bookmarks on the internet, and backing up your files. The last part of this chapter talks about note taking with direct quotation, paraphrasing, summarize, and a how to create a bibliography. A bibliography is a list of sources with complete publication information, using a format called MLA. This will help a lot for managing all your information and sources during your research project timeline. Overall, the organization and note taking go hand in hand with each other, to help you be successful in your writing research project.
