A bibliography is a list of sources that you have referred to directly or indirectly in your work, this is placed at the end of the work. The EPQ is the best way to prepare for life as a University student. Whilst creating a bibliography for the first time might be daunting, learning and practising the correct way now will make life so much easier in the future. The most common style of reference is the 'author, date' (Choi, 2003) style called Harvard system, its simple, can be seen clearly in the main body and used by a lot of academics. In a biblography it would look like this: Choi, C 2003, 'Cleaner living' Scientific American, vol. 289, no. 5, p. 32. A nifty tool called Zotero (search online) can be added to chrome. When you find yourself on an article, video or the link of a book (on Amazon, for example) that you'd like to reference, click the tool at the top right of your screen and it'll save it in your library as a source. When you download Zotero, a tab will also be created in MS Word; from here you can import the list of sources found online and put it at the end of your document when you have finished your EPQ!
