Generally, you'll need to include at least one of the following:
* A Bibliography: This lists *all* sources you consulted, whether or not they're directly cited in the text. This is a comprehensive overview of your research.
* A Works Cited: This only includes sources that are *directly cited* in the text of your dissertation.
Here's how to decide which is right for you:
1. Check your program's guidelines: Your department or program will likely have specific requirements for citing sources. Look for instructions about:
* Whether a bibliography or works cited is required.
* The specific format for your citations (e.g., MLA, APA, Chicago).
2. Consult your style guide: The style guide you're using will also have clear guidelines on the format and content of your citations.
3. Think about the scope of your research: If you've consulted a large number of sources, a bibliography might be more appropriate to acknowledge all your research. If you've only directly cited a few sources, a works cited might be sufficient.
Ultimately, it's best to follow the instructions provided by your program and style guide. If you're unsure, consult your advisor or a research librarian for clarification.
Here's an example:
* If you're using MLA, you'll need a "Works Cited" page.
* If you're using Chicago, you'll have both footnotes/endnotes and a "Bibliography."
Remember, the goal is to give credit to the sources you used and to provide readers with a clear path to finding those sources.
