Reference List Basics A reference list is a record of all the sources cited in a paper through direct quotes or paraphrasing. (A bibliography is a list of resources on a topic. It includes the references plus additional works that are not cited in the paper.) 1. 2. 3. 4.

The reference list appears at the end of a paper. It is double spaced and is titled References, not Reference List. The citations must be organized in alphabetical order by the lead authors’ or editors’ last names. Citations with the same author are arranged by publication year, starting with the earliest. If the citation is longer than one line, the second line and each subsequent line must be indented.
