Detailed explanation-1: -A reference list should be ordered alphabetically by author’s surname unless you are using a numeric referencing system. In this case, sources are assigned a number when they first appear in the text, and are listed in numerical order.
Detailed explanation-2: -We ignore the three nonsignificant words (“a, ‘’ “an, ‘’ and “the”) at the beginning of an author name for the purposes of alphabetizing. In this example, “The Smithsonian” is alphabetized in the “S”s in the reference list: Raskin, E.
Detailed explanation-3: -A bibliography is a detailed list of references cited in your work, plus the background readings or other material that you may have read, but not actually cited. Different courses may require just a reference list, just a bibliography, or even both.
