http://msute448fs08dvd.blogspot.com/2008/11/info-on-blogging-and-citing-what-you.html
Diversity in Children's and Adolescent Literature. Wednesday, November 12, 2008. Info on blogging and citing what you post. Last year's 448 instructor (Valerie) posted a really helpful post on this subject. I've cut and pasted it below:.
