Welcome to SouthernHistory.net
Every Day In Tennessee History (abbreviated as E.D.I.T.H.) was created by James B. Jones, Jr., Public Historian for the Tennessee Historical Commission. It was published in book form in 1996. (The book is out of print, although a few mint copies are available for collectors.) Its content has enlaraged and is now manifested as the web site (www.SouthernHistory.net, or abbreviated “shnet.”) you are currently visiting. Submissions are welcome. There are some things all visitors to “shnet” should keep in mind so that the sticky issues of plagiarism and law suits can be avoided. If any entry has a byline and/or copyright symbol (©) and the visitor wishes to use it in a speech, article, report, term paper, or book, it must be cited in a footnote or endnote or in parentheses with the author’s name, the article’s title, and the website it was taken from. For example “The War of Jenkins' Ear,” By Julie Anne Sweet” should be followed by the attribution “as cited in www.southernhistory.net” so it reads:
“The War of Jenkins' Ear. By Julie Anne Sweet,” as cited in www.southernhistory.net.
The same applies with the use of the (©) symbol, although the visitor should be cautioned that it is his responsibility to contact the author to consider fair use considerations as found at the Library of Congress web site. Otherwise it is incumbent on the user to contact the author of the article for permission to use portions of the article in question.
Information taken from “shnet” with no author listed, for example “William Walker’s Mexican Mistake” should be followed by the attribution “as cited in www.southernhistory.net,“ so that it reads:
“William Walker’s Mexican Mistake” as cited in www.southernhistory.net.
At times the source of a work will be found at another web site and in such cases the following example should be resorted to: Adams, John Quincy, b. 1845, Narrative of the Life of John Quincy Adams, When in Slavery, and Now as a Freeman. Harrisburg, Pa.: Sieg, 1872. 64 p. http://docsouth.unc.edu/browse/author/ as cited in www.southernhistory.net.
These tenets will, in the case of claims of plagiarism, help protect you from any litigations, and honor the source from which the information is taken. History may have happened independently of our involvement, but the fact that what little we do know of it is known to us at all is the result of somebody’s hard work and effort. Remember, plagiarism is theft.
