NOTES:

  • If you cannot find the author you can put whoever published the information
  • It doesn't matter about the style you choose, just pick one and stick to it
  • BE CONSISTENT
  • If there is no author completely, then put 'anon'
  • A Bibliography has to be alphabetically ordered, and it's a good idea to section it into types
  • If there is multiple authors put: Miles, R. and Smith, J.
  • If there is a collection of authors put Miles, R., etal
  • If you can't find a date on a webpage, put the date at the bottom of the page
  • If you really cannot find any date put (n.d) - no date
