A bibliography is an alphabetical list of sources used in a piece of work. It acknowledges and credits sources and provides information for readers to identify and consult sources. Failing to include a bibliography could result in accusations of plagiarism. Key information to include in a bibliography are author names, titles, publication details, and resource types for sources like books, magazines, websites and interviews.

What is a bibliography? A bibliography is an alphabetical list of sources that we have used to prepare a piece of work. It can include: books magazines & newspapers CDs websites interviews Encyclopedias
Why do we write bibliographies? To acknowledge or credit our sources To give our readers information to identify and consult our sources And to make sure our information is accurate
What if we don¡¯t include a bibliography? We may be accused of plagiarism Æ°¸`×ïÃû (that is, stealing another person¡¯s ideas or writing); if so, we may lose some or all of the marks for our work.
Points to Remember Get into the habit of writing down the details of your sources as you work. They may not all be used in the final piece of work but it is much easier to keep a note as you go along. Use a data form or recording sheet to make sure you record all the correct information. The final bibliography needs to be in alphabetical order . The style we use at WISS is called MLA
