Welcome

It is the goal of the East Troy Geek Squad to bring forth the capabilities of technology and present them in a manageable, clear, and understandable way. We do understand that sometimes it may seem like the confusion, hassle, quirks, and even risks of using technology outweigh the benefits, but we're here to change that.

EasyBib: A Great Way to Keep Track of your Sources

Good News for Scholars of all shapes and sizes:

Google Chrome now has a new Chrome Extension which helps you write, collect, and save your sources right from your internet browser.

You may recall researching on the web and then forgetting where you got the information from when it was time for your Works Cited Page?

Well, never again, if you become adept at this handy little extension.

It's called EasyBib for obvious reasons: it provides you with an Easy way to create a Bibliography, or as we call it in the 21st century, a Works Cited Page.

Here it is in the Chromestore: EasyBib.  Here it is on the Web: EasyBib.


EasyBib has two handy functions:
  1. It can give you a snapshot overview of the credibility of the site you're on (credible, not credible, or no record).
  2. It can walk you through citing that page and then collect your citations in your account for later use. 
Nice.
