Researching and Citations

Using library or Internet resources provide a brief overview or description of each of the items listed below, along with a full citation and references. Your submission should include a cover page, the body of you research, and a reference page. Here is an example of the first first item. I am using Alabama because it is my home state…your answers will depend on your city and/or state:

Your states statute that defines what is considered to be a public record that must be made available to the public upon request. I am using APA formatting, however you may use the new Strayer Writing Standards if you like:
Code of Alabama 1975, 36-12-40 provides that “[e]very citizen has a right to inspect and take a copy of any public writing of this state, except as otherwise expressly provided by statute.” While many of the records maintained by the Office of the Secretary of State are available on the official website at www.sos.alabama.gov and may thus be obtained electronically, not all records are available through this means (Request Public Information, 2020).

On your reference page you should have the following listing:

Requesting Public Information. (2020). Online at: https://www.sos.alabama.gov/sos-office/request-public-information

Grading for this assignment will be based on the quality of the answer and the completeness and correctness of the citations.
