Bibliography

=Bibliography in Word=

Add a new citation and source to a document
When you add a new citation to a document, you also create a new source that will appear in the bibliography.
 * On the **References** tab, in the **Citations & Bibliography** group, click the arrow next to **Style**.
 * Click the style that you want to use for the citation and source.
 * For example, social sciences documents usually use the MLA or APA styles for citations and sources.
 * Click at the end of the sentence or phrase that you want to cite.
 * On the **References** tab, in the **Citations &amp; Bibliography** group, click **Insert Citation**.

Do one of the following:
 * To add the source information, click **Add New Source**.
 * To add a placeholder, so that you can create a citation and fill in the source information later, click **Add new placeholder**. A question mark appears next to placeholder sources in Source Manager.

Find a source
The list of sources that you consult or cite can become quite long. At times you might search for a source that you cited in another document by using the **Manage Sources** command.

On the **References** tab, in the **Citations & Bibliography** group, click **Manage Sources**. If you open a new document that does not yet contain citations, all of the sources that you used in previous documents appear under **Master List**.

If you open a document that includes citations, the sources for those citations appear under **Current List**, and all sources that you have cited, either in previous documents or in the current document, appear under **Master List**.
 * To find a specific source, do one of the following:
 * In the sorting box, sort by author, title, citation tag name, or year, and then search the resulting list for the source that you want to find.
 * In the **Search** box, type the title or author for the source that you want to find. The list dynamically narrows to match your search term.
 * Note** You can click the **Browse** button in **Source Manager** to select another master list from which you can import new sources into your document. For example, you might connect to a file on a share, on a research colleague's computer or server, or on a Web site that is hosted by a university or research institution.

Edit a citation placeholder
Occasionally, you may want to create a placeholder citation, and then wait until later to fill in the complete bibliography source information. Any changes that you make to a source are automatically reflected in the bibliography, if you have already created one. A question mark appears next to placeholder sources in Source Manager.

On the **References** tab, in the **Citations & Bibliography** group, click **Manage Sources**. Under **Current List**, click the placeholder that you want to edit. To add more information about a source, click the **Show All Bibliography Fields** check box.
 * Note** Placeholder sources are alphabetized in Source Manager, along with all other sources, based on the placeholder tag name. Placeholder tag names are numbers by default, but you can customize the placeholder tag name with whatever tag you want.
 * Click **Edit**.
 * Begin to fill in the source information by clicking the arrow next to **Type of source**. For example, your source might be a book, a report, or a Web site.
 * Fill in the bibliography information for the source. Use the **Edit** button to fill in fields instead of having to type names in the appropriate format.

Create a bibliography
You can create a bibliography at any point after you insert one or more sources in a document. If you don't have all of the information that you need about a source to create a complete citation, you can use a placeholder citation, and then complete the source information later. >
 * Note** Placeholder citations do not appear in the bibliography.
 * Click where you want to insert a bibliography, usually at the end of the document.
 * On the **References** tab, in the **Citations & Bibliography** group, click **Bibliography**.


 * Click a predesigned bibliography format to insert the bibliography into the document.
