BIBLIOGRAPHICAL

ENTIRES FOR ONLINE

SOURCES
CITATION AND BIBLIOGRAPHY
• Citations identify published information in order to locate that item again. Citations
of articles often include the author, title, magazine or journal name, page numbers
and publication information. Citations of Web documents also include a URL and the
day the information was accessed.
• The list of the sources you used when researching your paper is called a
bibliography or works cited page. These sources are listed in citation format and
follow an established style, such as MLA (Modern Language
Association), APA (American Psychological Association) or Chicago Manual of Style.
The bibliography allows others who read your work to verify facts or research the
same information more easily.

 BIBLIOGRAPHY, ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY OR
WORKS CITED?

Despite the varying terms, the difference between a bibliography, an annotated bibliography
and a works cited page is simple.
• A works cited page is a list of every work cited in the text of your paper.
• A bibliography  is a list of every work you used while writing your paper, whether or not it
was specifically cited.
• An annotated bibliography is a bibliography with a short note by the author explaining the
significance of the source.
