Bibliography Tips

•   Underline a title
  
•   If a book or other material does not have an author, use the title in place of the author’s last name. One-page articles and encyclopedia articles do not need numbers.
  
•   List entries in alphabetical order
  
•   Indent the second line and double space between entries
