How do I write a Bibliography?
A Bibliography must be written carefully with much attention to detail. Take a close look at what is put in italics and where the punctuation goes. Look at the following examples to help put your information in the correct order. The final Bibliography should be put in alphabetical order. Use your "Keeping Track" pages to fill in the information for a Bibliography. Determine your alphabetical order before you begin writing or typing the Bibliography.
