How to Write a Bibliograpy

By: Robert Thomson

What does Bibliography mean? Webster's Dictionary describes it as the history, identification, or description of writings or publications. It can be anything E-book, journals, Comics etc.

Making a Bibliography might look very simple but it requires a great attention to minute details. It will become a bad publicity to your book in case it is not made first time right.

When making a Bibliography make sure we read the documents for which the bibliography is needed. And a thorough reading will help all the better.
Steps that can be used:

. Make a List, First, of all the sources that the author has used.
. Collect all the titles, references etc that has been used in the book.
. When more than one reference is used, make sure to arrange it in alphabetical or any other preferred order based on the content of the body.
. Make sure the information that comes from the bibliography comes from the Title page of each book, and not from anywhere else.

. Cover all the dates of publication, for each reference.
. If any special references to web pages etc, find out the credibility of the data contained in the same. For example like who is the author, his other works etc.
. Include the most relevant information always. Extra information might tend to mislead the readers.

When everything is listed, arrange it all in a required fashion; give formatting for the Bibliography as required. Here your work is complete now, give a review and you are ready to go.
