Bibliography
F A bibliography is a list of all items that were used as source material when researching an assignment. You should keep a record of everything you read just in case you mention something that you don’t remember referencing.
F The sources appear in alphabetic order, by author’s last name (or the first item in the entry if there is no author).
F The bibliography appears on a separate page, press [CTRL] [Enter] with the title “Bibliography” or References, or Works Cited.
F The bibliography is placed as the last page of an assignment.
F The font and title should be “consistent” with the styles used in the main body of the assignment. This is normally a Times - 12 point font.
F Each entry is single spaced, with double spacing between entries.
F Use the hanging indent command to indent the second line of the entry. The first line is not tabbed.
F Pay close attention to the punctuation and format for each type of source.
F The bibliographic entry for a book has five pieces of information: Author, Title, City of Publication, Publisher, Year of Publication. Other sources require a variation of this information.

Creating a Bibliography From Scrambled Text
Use all your reference materials, including the file on the I: drive called Bibliography Reference Document, to reorganize the following text into a proper bibliography.
Caution: a bibliography is keyed in alphabetic order, by first item.
The title on the page is: Bibliography (not Assignment).
Use a footer to add your name and the date.
Check your work carefully for spacing and punctuation.
NOTE: A bibliography does not normally have a footer on it, but for this assignment it is required.
The first source was a book written by Mr. G. Reizgys called Computers Are Only a Tool. It was written in 1997, published in Oakville by Lakeshore Press.
Information was also retrieved from an Internet site called the Educators Website. The title of the work was “The Internet Rules” and no author was given. The information was accessed on October 30th, 1998 at the following address: www.educatorsweb.com.
An article from Computer World Magazine was also used as a primary source. The article was called: Real People Do Compute and was written by Mr. B. Smiley. The magazine was published August, 1996 and the article was found on pages 234 to 240.
The CD ROM, Microsoft Encarta ‘96 was used to find an article called “Internetitis - A New Disease”.
The National Post published an excellent article titled Making Schools and Computers Interface. The article was written by J. Gale and V. Moore and appeared on October 23, 1998 in the Technology Section on page F3.
The last source used was a video by the National Film Board called “Educating the Masses - The Internet Makes It Possible”. The 30 minute video was produced and directed by Mr. Ford.
The simplest way to cite sources is to use parenthetical references or embedded
citations. The author’s last name and the page number from which the quotation,
paraphrase or idea is taken must appear in the text in parentheses and a
complete reference should appear in your Works Cited list. For example:
….One runaway states “Drunk, my dad couldn’t work steady anymore, so he’d
work on and off. He’d sober up for work and tank up after work.” (Webber
126)…
If you cite another paragraph from the same work, or if the author or authors
are clearly indicated in your text, common sense dictates that you only need to
add page number(s) for the citation. For example:
…….According to Webber, street kids are more likely to suffer abuse at the
hands of their parents. (123)……..
If you are citing two or more articles by the same author, distinguish the sources
by adding a date after the author's last name, e.g. (Webber 1991 54), (Webber
2000 62-64); or by adding an abbreviation of the title after the last name, e.g.
(Webber Street kids 21), (Webber Homeless 35-40).
If you are quoting from a Web page, your citation for a parenthetical reference
follows the same format as any regular citations for author, editor, title, etc.
with one exception. Where no page reference is available on a Web page,
indicating only the author's last name, or the short title, without page reference,
e.g. (Child Welfare League) or (Hynes) would be all you need for a parenthetical
reference provided that a corresponding entry has been made in your Works
Cited list.
Place quotations longer than four lines in a block of lines and omit the quotation
marks. Start the quotation on a new line, making sure you indent. Your citation
should come after the quotation.
When quoting from plays, cite the act, scene, and line numbers for Shakespeare’s
plays, and the page number, act and scene (if any) for other plays.
