Reading: Using
Bibliographies
Lesson Objectives: To understand and use
bibliographies.
Bibliography and References:
The reader must be able to trace the works you have used. Therefore you
should add a bibliography in which you provide as much information as
possible about the books or articles. The books and articles must be
presented in alphabetical order. The items marked * must always be
mentioned.
Books:
*Name of author (if
more than 3, give the 1st + "et al.")
*Title of book (italics or underlined)
Name of editor or translator, if any
Name of author of introduction, if any
Number of edition, if other than the first
*Place of publication (if no place is given, write "n.p.")
*Name of publisher (if no publisher is given, write "n.p.")
*Date of publication (if no date is given, write "n.d.")
EXAMPLES:
Cannon, T., The World
of Business, Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1989.
Wit, T., et al., A
Study on Recession, edited by W. Roos, translated by F. Baker, 2nd ed.,
London: Blackpool Press, 1998.
Articles:
*Name of author (if
unknown, start with the title)
*Title of article (in quotation marks)
*Name of magazine (italics or underlined)
Volume number (if the magazine is issued weekly or monthly)
*Date of issue
EXAMPLES:
Simeonova, V.,
"The Bulgarian Solution?", Time 152, 28 September 1998.
Bush, R.,
"Agriculture in Jeopardy", The Middle East 211, May 1992.
"Getting General
Motors Going Again", The Economist 323, 2 May 1992.
FOOTNOTES:
If you cite a work, the footnote entry should state the same information as
the bibliography entry plus a page number. Note that the first name and
surname are not reversed.
EXAMPLES:
1T. Cannon, The World
of Business, Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1989, p. 89.
2V. Simeonova,
"The Bulgarian Solution?", Time 152, 28 September 1998, p.22.
If there are later
references to a work already cited, just state author and page number.
