À propos de la quatrième de couverture

A decade ago a bookmark was defined exclusively as a strip of metal, fabric, or paper inserted between the pages of a book to hold a reader's place. But, today, a bookmark is also a much-used feature of Web browsers, a way to store frequently consulted Web addresses.

What has happened to this simple work provides a rationale for Bookmarks: A Guide to Research and Writing. Just as electronic technology has complicated the meaning of bookmark, it has similarly transformed every aspect of research. So we offer Bookmarks as a new-generation research guide built on the assumption that students need to appreciate both conventional methods of research and techniques associated with rapidly developing electronic technologies.

Bookmarks is designed as a bridge between old and new traditions-a guide for the college writers working in both print and electronic environments. It invites them to think of themselves, perhaps for the first time, as serious researchers.
