    A bibliography is a list of all sources used in research, including author names, titles, publisher names and locations, publication dates, and page numbers if relevant. It appears at the end of works and includes both cited and non-cited sources. Documentation styles like MLA and APA provide guidelines for formatting bibliographic entries that vary between academic disciplines, with MLA preferred for literature and languages and APA preferred for social sciences. Key differences between MLA and APA styles include name formatting, title capitalization, publisher information included, and placement of publication dates.

    Bibliography

    A bibliography is a list of all of the sources you have used (whether referenced or not) in
    the process of researching your work. In general, a bibliography should include:

     the authors' names

     the titles of the works

     the names and locations of the companies that published your copies of the
    sources

     the dates your copies were published

     the page numbers of your sources (if they are part of multi-source volumes)

    It is also known as a list of works cited, a bibliography may appear at the end of a
    book, report, online presentation, research paper or thesis.
    Established conventions for documenting sources vary from one academic
    discipline to another. The Modern Language Association (MLA) style of
    documentation is preferred in literature and languages. For papers in the social
    sciences the American Psychological Association (APA) style is preferred.

    APA vs. MLA Styles


    "In an entry for a book in an APA-style works-cited list, the date (in parentheses)
    immediately follows the name of the author (whose first name is written only as
    an initial), just the first word of the title is capitalized, and the publisher's full name
    is generally provided.

    APA
    Anderson, I. (2007). This is our music: Free jazz, the sixties, and American culture .
    Philadelphia: University of Pennsylvania Press.

    By contrast, in an MLA-style entry, the author's name appears as given in the


    work (normally in full), every important word of the title is capitalized, some words
    in the publisher's name are abbreviated, the publication date follows the
    publisher's name, and the medium of publication is recorded. . . . In both styles,
    the first line of the entry is flush with the left margin, and the second and
    subsequent lines are indented.
    MLA
