It is important to complete a bibliography and attach it to your assignment work.

4. A bibliography is listed in alphabetical order by the last name of the author.
5. Do not indent the first line in the citation. If It is longer than one line then indent the subsequent lines
approximately 1.5 cm.
6. Follow the citation conventions of your school.
