Citations & References (New): References: Books

It's called a what list now?

A Bibliography by any other name... is often called other things according to which Citation Style you are using:

  • APA7: Reference List
  • MLA8: Works Cited List
  • Chicago: Bibliography

The exact layout and punctuation may vary slightly between styles but HANGING INDENTS are always required. A hanging indent is used to visually separate each of the entries in your list, indenting any information after the first line of the entry.
