How to Make a Bibliography for a Magazine

A bibliography is a list of resources found at the end of a piece of writing. Sources might include books, magazines, interviews, movies and much more. In preparing a written assignment whereby a magazine is used as an information source, it is necessary to acknowledge your source in an appropriately formatted manner. A simple bibliography for a magazine can help the reader find more information, disclose the sources used in your research and prevent plagiarism.
