  1. Writing a Bibliography

  2. No matter the source... • The author’s last name comes before his first name (when he is first in the list). • Titles of longer works (eg. novels, plays) are underlined; titles of shorter works (eg. short stories, articles) are in “quotations.” • Use the most recent dates listed. • The second and subsequent lines are indented. • Arrange entries in alphabetical order and double spaced.

  3. Magazine Articles and Periodicals Author. "Title: Subtitle of Article." Title of Magazine, Journal, or Newspaper Day, Month, Year of Publication: Page Number(s). EXAMPLE: Nordland, Rod, Sami Yousafzai, and BabakDehghanpisheh. "How Al Qaeda Slipped Away." Newsweek 19 Aug. 2002: 34-41.

  4. Book Sources Author. Title: Subtitle. City or Town: Publisher, Year of Publication. EXAMPLES: King, Stephen. Black House. New York: Random, 2001. Osen, Diane, ed. The Book That Changed My Life: Interviews with National Book Award Winners and Finalists. New York: Modern, 2002.

  5. Internet Sources • First date = date it was written or last updated • Second date = date accessed by you • Skip any information you cannot find on the site. • Break up URL’s where it will not cause too much confusion.
