When adding a book to a bibliography, state the author's name---last name first, first name last---then a period. The title of the book follows next; underlining the title is standard. Another period follows the book title. The publisher's name is next; after a comma, include the publication date.
Example:
Smith, John. "Book of Reference." Happy Books Publishing, 2010.
When adding a magazine article or story to a bibliography, state the author's name---again, last name first---then a period. The title of the article or story is next, usually in quotes, and then a period. The title of the magazine follows; underlining is standard, though italics are also usually accepted. After a period, the date of the magazine's issue---month, year---and a comma, with the pages of the magazine.
Example:
Smith, John. "Article of Reference." Magazine of Reference. April 28, 2010, pg. 55-59.
When adding a newspaper article or story to a bibliography, state the author's name---last name first---followed by a period. The title of the article, in quotes, follows. After a period, state the newspaper (can be underlined or in italics), comma, date (day, month, year), comma, and section and page number.
Example:
Smith, John. "Newspaper story of reference." New York News. April 28, 2010, A3.
When adding a website to a bibliography, state the author's name---last name first---and a period. List the page's name in quotes or italics. After a period, copy and paste the website's entire URL, and place in parentheses the date you visited the site to gather the information.
Example:
Smith, John. "Web site story of reference." Web Site Reference. http://www.websiteofreference.com/jsmith.html
When adding an interview to a bibliography, list the full name of the person interviewed (and the person doing the interview), his or her title/position, and the date and location of the interview.
