The first step in accurately and efficiently citing the sources of information in your report or
project is preparing the final bibliography. Although the bibliography will be the final page of
your report, it is an essential part. It is not only a concise record of the sources you use, but it is a
valuable reference tool for your readers who may seek more information about your topic.
It is best to write the bibliography before you write the report. This is a very easy step, since you
already will have all of your sources listed on note cards (working bibliography).
