Hello! I'm Eileen Archer and I'm here at FLY HIGH as Maria Grazia's guest blogger. My post is a
short guide for those who use books as part of their academic pieces of work.
Why should
I use books?
To write
academically and correctly we must make use of the literature available to us.
You must read as much as you possibly can before even starting to write your
academic piece. Take notes of each book you have thought interesting and the
relation between that and your own forthcoming work. Remember to mark the pages
too, so you can come back to ideas later.
Which
books?
When it
comes to using the information from a book that you have absorbed, been
interested in or found highly relevant to your field, you must decide when and
where to use it. If there are two books that have the same idea, choose the one
that clarifies the point better, and cite that one in your own piece of work.
The clearer the idea, the easier it is for you to expand on the point and the
easier it is for the reader to follow.
