About the Work
This book helps students assess the quality of electronic sources and make selection decisions regarding their use in a scientific (thesis) paper. For the correct citation of even unusual sources (for example: email communication, advertising media, games), the reader will find concrete suggestions and templates.

A unique feature of the book is the treatment of the correct citation of project materials. This issue particularly affects transfer-oriented degree programs, where the thesis consists of a scientifically supervised project, and students have so far found no literature on the correct citation of internal company sources.

Content Overview:

• Universal requirements for a citation (truth, clarity, traceability, …)
• Citation styles (long form/short form, Chicago or Harvard style)
• Comparison of online and print sources - quality standards
• Citation of: e-books, online studies, emails, podcasts, videos, PPT, PDF, …

Target Audience
Students of business and technical degree programs who use sources in their thesis that go beyond books, journal articles, or internet sources.
