The entries in a bibliography are listed alphabetically, beginning with author's name (last name first). For works with multiple authors, only the first author's name is inverted. Elements are separated by periods. In the following structure and examples, pay attention to every detail, including letter case, italicization, punctuation, space, and the hanging indent. If the source has no author(s), check "Sources with no author/title" on the left column.
