Style Guide References and Bibliography
Appendix A: Bibliography
As noted by Softschools.com, a bibliography is a list of the books and other sources that are referred to in a scholarly work-such as an essay, term paper, dissertation, or a book. The bibliography comes at the end of the work.
There are different ways to format a bibliography, and the style that you use will depend on the discipline in which you are writing. For those who are writing in the field of literature use the Modern Language Association (MLA) style. Those who are writing in the social sciences use the American Psychological Association (APA) style. There are several other styles as well depending on the field or discipline.
