Current Events

When printing articles from a website, make sure you are printing directly from the site. On any reputable news source's webpage, you will find a link to "Print this." Doing so will remove any ads and other junk for you, but will still include any relevant source information. This ensures that you have not only completely cited your source, but that you have also not modified the document in any way.

For example, click on this link and then hit the print button under the picture: Greece
Notice how all the ads (except the small one at the top) have been removed, saving space and paper. (I am unable to provide you with a direct link to the printer friendly version).

Copying the information into a document and printing that is a way to save paper (since you can remove the ads and pictures), but does not ensure the accuracy of the source.
For example: Greece

Please don't hesitate to see me if you have any questions!
