How to do a Bibliography

What is a bibliography (bib-li-og-ra-phy)?
A bibliography is a list of the books of a specific author or publisher, or on a specific subject.

Why do I need to make a bibliography?
A bibliography helps you know where you got your information from and it lets your teacher know you are giving proper credit for your sources of information.

What do I include in a bibliography?
You should list every source you use such as a book, a movie, a website, an interview or any information that did not come from you

Where do I put the bibliography for my assignment?
The bibliography goes at the end of your assignment. The title of this page should be Bibliography or Works Cited
