A bibliography is a list of sources used or cited in a research paper or other work. It provides essential information about each source, including author, title, publisher, and date. There are several types of bibliographies, including systematic enumerative bibliographies that list all published works on a topic, current selection aids that evaluate recently published materials, and bibliographies of bibliographies that catalog other bibliographies. Bibliographies follow consistent formatting principles and are compiled based on guidelines to ensure accuracy and logical arrangement of sources.

- 56. Guidelines in Compiling Bibliographies 1. A bibliography must be classified and divided into sections, usually by type of material, unless it is very short. 2. The variety of source of materials may sometimes call for further subdivision of the main classes, e.g. Primary sources may be divided into “Published” and “Unpublished” works. 3. Entries should be arranged in a definite order within the division. 4. The bibliography of a paper is single-spaced with one blank space between entries. The first line of each entry is flush left, and all subsequent lines, if any, ate indented five spaces.
- 57. 5. Give the author’s full name in the inverted order. 6. If there are two or more authors, only the first author’s name is inverted from while the succeeding names are transcribed in natural order. 7. Full stops are used in bibliographical entries, at the end of each main part. Bibliographical references to periodicals, however, retain the parenthesis around the dates of publication when these follow volume number. 8. Page numbers are listed in bibliographical entries when the main item is part of a whole work.
- 58. When given, page no. must be inclusive (first and the last page of the cited section). When an article is continued at the back of the journal, only the first page is to be given. 9. Bibliographies are arranged alphabetically by author’s family name, letter by letter. 10. In a succession of works by the same author, the name given for the first entry and an eight space line succeeding with a period takes place in subsequent entries.
