Citation Guide
Credit should always be given for anyone else's ideas or words used.
A bibliography is an alphabetized list of information sources. It contains all of the works that you actually use in your paper or presentation, as well as a list of other books or sources you read but didn't directly use in your project.
A works cited list is the part of a formal research paper that lists, in bibliographic format, only the sources actually cited within the body of the report.
An annotated bibliography contains an evaluative description of the information source after each citation.
