The Bedford Researcher: Chapter Twenty

Chapter 20 was about understanding documentation systems. The first part of the chapter is about what documentation systems are and which one to use. Documentation systems are for citing sources (MLA, APA, CSE). Which one you use depends on which field you are writing in. I will use MLA since I'm writing my paper for English class. The second part of the chaper explained how to document sources. Basically, you provide a reference to your source within the text and provide a complete set of citations or formal acknowledgements, for your sources in a works cited or reference list.
