Getting Started in NoodleTools/NoodleBib
• Log into your account• Open the list you have created for this
research project/assignment• Have your information source available and
at your fingertips (in this case, it will be the live version of the article in the EBSCOhost Literary Reference Center database).
Begin by looking at the publication information at the beginning of the article. If you see a specific publication date with a month/year or season/year, it is a journal; if you see just a year, it is a reference book in this database. In example, we are working with a book.
