How To Write A Bibliography

Cecil Said:

How do i write a bibliography on the American red cross?

We Answered:

A bibliography is different from a Works Cited page.

Bibliography is a sampling of books on a particular topic, usually encompassing the major works in that literature and some contrasting opinions.

Works Cited is a listing of books, magazines, journals, etc., from which information is taken to write the paper.

Depending on what type of writing style you are using (MLA, APA, Chicago, Turban), you will either write a Bibliography or a Works Cited page.

If a specific writing style hasn't been assigned, usually MLA or APA is accepted.

In general, a Bibliography is an alphabetical list (by last name of author) of all the works you've cited, referenced or utilized.

The authors name, with last name and a comma and initials, goes first. Then the Title of the work (in quotes if it is an article, italicized if it is a periodical, underlined if it is a book) Example:

Keynes, J. M. <u>A General Theory of Interest and Wages.<u> London: Houghton-Mifflin Co., 1938.

Tobin, J. "Towards a More Economically Just Society." <I>Econometrica<I> Vol. 47. Univ. of Chicago Press, May 1963.

How to write a bibliography for a website?

We Answered:

Whenever you write a citation for a website, it is understandable that you wouldn't be able to find ALL of the information that you would in a published book or article. Search the site and see what information you CAN find, and use that. Look for dates, authors, titles, etc. Sometimes, if you can't find any information at all, it leads the viewer to suspect that it is not a credible source. But, if you believe that its information is accurate, just write the citation with what information you have.

If I were you, I would check out this website: www.mybiblionline.com

The next time you have a bibliography due for class, (or maybe even for the one you're working on now) you can just go to the online form of this website and describe what your research is about. Their experienced writers will do the research for you--finding the most accurate and credible sources for you to use, and they write out the bibliography for you in whatever style you want. It is a brand new website that not a lot of people know about yet. I really find it helpful.

And, if you sign up for their newsletter, they'll send you a special bibliography for free just to thank you for visiting their site.
