This tool makes creating your correctly formatted Bibliography easy! The generator covers a wide range of sources, including books, webpages, images, articles (newspaper, magazine, encyclopedia), images - and much more.
For Years 5-8, use Middle School.
If you're still not sure, come and ask a member of the Library staff for help!
You can also visit our Bibliography page on Schoolbox. (It looks like the image below.)
A Bibliography should always be sorted alphabetically, not by type of resource. See the example below.

What is a bibliography?
A bibliography is a list of the resources (such as books, websites, and encyclopedias) that you use when doing research.
Why do I need to make a bibliography?
A bibliography helps you know where you got your information from and shows your teacher that you used proper sources.
What do I include in a bibliography?
You should list every source that you use when doing research. Sources can include books (electronic and paper), videos, images, websites, encyclopedia articles and magazine articles.
When should I do my bibliography?
It is a good idea to add to your bibliography as you do your research. Always record books, websites and other sources as you use them – this keeps you organised, and saves time later!
Where do I put the bibliography for my assignment?
The bibliography goes at the end of your assignment. Your bibliography needs to be written in alphabetical order, not separated into type of source.
