Hello!
I would like to introduce my undergraduate students to the tool Noodlebib; does the library subscribe to this? I am thinking not since I do not see it on the webpage, but I thought I would ask.
Thanks, Maura
Stylistic question, regarding the question of Arabic numerals versus putting the number in words (20 versus twenty):
In formal writing, I’ve always been told that the correct version depends where in the sentence the number is located. If the number is the first word in the sentence, the number needs to be written out; however, if the number is not the first word in the sentence and is higher than ten, it should be in Arabic numerals. Hence:
Twenty years ago, I moved to New Hampshire, but left the state after 15 years.
However, I recently had this corrected on a paper submitted for a course. Could you clarify? Thanks.
If I live in Arizona, how can I get the CD to update my computer and use endnote?

Thanks for highlighting this question, as it is relevant for many students. I will contact you via email to arrange getting EndNote to you.
In the future, I want to make EndNote available electronically through my.plymouth or BlackBoard. So, if you’re reading this in the future, please check there
