Instead, use Google Scholar The single most commonly used academic bibliographic database in US is probably “Web of Science” at Your library may provide accessA very useful bibliography fro GIS from ESRI is Lists of GIS journals are available On website of Dr Fang Qiu On my web site (with other information about GIS) 36How to Format CitationsIt is very important to use the correct format when citing literaturecopying/pasting a URL is not sufficient!It may be gone tomorrowThe Chicago Manual of Style is the acc
