Making Citations and Creating Bibliography
Hello! How are you today? Are you feeling fine or are you stressed out because you have research
to do? And that your teacher said you have to create a bibliography?
Don’t worry! In this lesson, we will try to know why we need to cite sources in our research work.
In academic situation it is not good to make people think that we are stealing their words or ideas. To
make it clear, it is okay to use or borrow other people’s words or ideas, but it is not okay to pretend
they are ours; and that is the reason why we need to cite sources.
Citing means to mention or to declare; and sources mean the origin of the information. When
citing sources, it is important that you indicate whose words they are and where you got them.
There are many different styles of citation such as: the American Psychology Association (APA)
style used mainly in the social sciences, the Chicago Manual Style (CMS) used in Business and
History; and the Modern Language Association (MLA) style used for Languages and Humanities.
Here we will focus on the style that is recommended by the Modern Language Association (MLA).
This style like any other styles can help protect writers from accusation of plagiarism. Plagiarism is
an academic word for stealing.
Quite often, the terms bibliography and works cited are used interchangeably. But they have some
unique differences.
• Bibliography is a list of sources that relate to the content in a research paper or project. The
authors sometimes include a list of sources for further or additional reading. This additional
reading list is a bibliography.
• While Works Cited is a list of sources that are included in the body of a research paper or
project, often via in-text citation: sources are only listed if they were mentioned in the text. Each
source corresponds to a narrative in-text citation or parenthetical citation.
In MLA, a basic book citation with one author includes the following information:
➢ Format:
• Author's last name, first name. Book title. Additional information. City of publication:
Publishing company, Publication date.
Examples:
Allen, Thomas B. Vanishing Wildlife of North America. Washington, D.C.: National Geographic
Society, 1974.
Format:
• Author Surname, First Name, et al. Book Title: Subtitle. Publisher, Year.
Example:
Johnson, Norine G., et al. Beyond Appearance: A New Look at Adolescent Girls. American
Psychological Association, 2009.
Format:
Author's last name, first name (if available). "Title of work within a project or database." Title
of site, project, or database. Editor (if available). Electronic publication information (Date of
publication or of the latest update, and name of any sponsoring institution or organization).
Date of access and <full URL>.
Note: If you cannot find some of this information, cite what is available.
Devitt, Terry. "Lightning injures four at music festival." The Why? Files. 2 Aug. 2001. 23 Jan.
2002 <http://whyfiles.org /137lightning/index.html>.
Magazine & Newspaper Articles
Format:
Author's last name, first name. "Article title." Periodical title Volume # Date: inclusive pages.
Example: Hall, Trish. "IQ Scores Are Up, and Psychologists Wonder Why." New York Times 24 Feb.
1998, late ed.: F1+.
Format:
Author's last name, first name. "Title of Article." Title of Encyclopedia. Date.
Note: If the dictionary or encyclopedia arranges articles alphabetically, you may omit volume and
page numbers.
Examples:
"Azimuthal Equidistant Projection." Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary. 10th ed. 1993.
Let’s Practice!
A. TRUE or FALSE: Read the following statements carefully. Write T if the statement about a
cited work is true and F if it is false. Write your answer on the blank before the number.
_____________1. Author’s names are listed alphabetically in reverse order on the Works Cited page.
_____________2. For multiple authors of the same text in your Works Cited page, list all the authors
in reverse order, separated by commas, and a period at the end.
_____________3. You should capitalize every word in a title.
_____________4. You only use “et al” when you are citing a text with more than three authors.
___________ _5. Citing sources in creating bibliography is important because it gives credit to the
writers from whom you have borrowed words or ideas from.

Key Points
Works cited is a list of sources that are included in the body of a research paper or project, often
via in-text citation: sources are only listed if they were mentioned in the text.
A bibliography (or works consulted list), in contrast, provides a full citation for every work you
consulted as you wrote your paper. Bibliographies are therefore usually much longer than works cited
pages. Both entries are arranged in alphabetical order according to the author’s last name. If the entry
doesn’t have an author (such as a web page, encyclopedia entry, or editorial), alphabetize it according
to the first word of the title).
Remember when citing sources, it is important that you indicate whose words they are and where
you got them. There are many different styles of citation such as the American Psychological
Association (APA) style used in Science, the Chicago Manual Style (CMS) used in Business and
History, and the Modern Language (MLA) style used for Languages and Humanities.

Title: Scanning for Details
In order to read effectively and comprehensively, you need to use different reading techniques for
different purposes and texts. You should always read for a clearly defined purpose. One of these
techniques is scanning.
What is scanning?
Scanning a text means looking through it quickly to find specific information. Scanning is
commonly used in everyday life, for example when looking up a word in a dictionary or finding
a friend’s name in the contacts directory of your phone.
Simply put, scanning is a reading skill or a technique where the reader sweeps his eyes (like
radar) over a part of a text to find specific pieces of information.
Scanning and another quick reading skill, skimming, are often confused, though they are quite
different. While skimming is concerned with finding general information, namely the main ideas,
scanning involves looking for specific information.
• After gaining an overview of the text, identify the section(s) of the text that you probably
need to read. Before you start scanning for information, you should try to understand how the
text is arranged. This will help you to locate the information more quickly.
• Start scanning the text by allowing your eyes (or finger) to move quickly over a page.
This means you can go more quickly to the part you want, without having to look through
everything. It is also a good idea to use your finger as you move down (or back up) the page,
to focus your attention and keep track of where you are.
• As soon as your eye catches an important word or phrase, stop reading. When scanning,
you will be looking for key words or phrases. These will be especially easy to find if they are
names, because they will begin with a capital letter, or numbers/dates.
• When you locate information requiring attention, you then slow down to read the relevant
section more thoroughly. You should read to take in as much of the text as possible for
identifying correct and specific pieces of information.
• Scanning is no substitute for thorough reading and should only be used to locate material
quickly. Remember that scanning alone does not give you the complete view of the reading
material. If you want complete comprehension of the material, you do thorough or detailed
reading.
Let’s Practice!
Directions: A. Scan the article as quickly as you can and provide the information that is mentioned.
Do not read it carefully word by word.
With fast food chains becoming more popular and people’s attempts to make meals more
quickly and cheaply, livestock is now raised differently than it was in days gone by. Many
domestic animals will never breathe fresh air outside nor eat off the land. Chickens that live
indoors their entire lives are fed grains which include antibiotics to help them grow faster
until they are deemed large enough to butcher.
Cattle farms are not what they used to be either. Cows usually start life in fields before they
are sold to the meat production industry. Huge factory-like structures can house thousands of
these large animals, but this can have huge implications for food safety because such cattle
live in their own manure. The cattle are given growth hormones in their ears to help them
grow faster. Once they are sufficiently fattened up, they are sent to slaughterhouses, where
they are processed into cuts of meat and what’s left is sent to the grinder. After that, the
processed meat is made into burger patties and shipped to fast food restaurants for everyone
to enjoy.
Directions: B: Find words or phrases in the text that match these underlined words and phrases. Rewrite
the sentences using the matched word or phrase.
Example: Chickens are fed to grow faster until they are considered big enough to
butcher.
Answer: Chickens are fed to grow faster until they are deemed big enough to butcher.
9. According to the writer, animals are not raised as they were in the past.
Answer: ___________________________________________________.
10. To make them ready for slaughtering, domestic fowl are fed with grains with
antibiotics.
Answer: ___________________________________________________.
REMEMBER
Key Points
Scanning is a reading skill/technique to be used when you want to find specific information quickly.
In scanning, you have a question in your mind and you read a passage only to find the answer, ignoring
unrelated information.
Scanning helps you anticipate how the answer will appear and what clues to use to help you locate the
answer. It is a selective reading and skipping through sections of a passage, text or selection.

Directions: Do the following tests. Read the instructions before you answer.
(Write your answers on the Learner's Activity and Assessment sheets.)
A. Quickly scan the text to answer the questions in complete sentences. You will need to first write the
paragraph number where you locate the answer.
[P2] Undernutrition is in news reports of famines in poor countries, but it can also be found in developed
countries. In industrialised countries, under-nutrition can be seen in young people who have eating
disorders such as anorexia nervosa or bulimia, where the amount of energy they consume in food is
less than the needs of their body.
[P3] If children’s diets are too low in energy, they will stop growing and gaining weight. They will
become lethargic, less active and be unable to concentrate. If the situation continues, they may develop
life-threatening diseases. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (2012) reports
that 100 million children under the age of five are underweight and 35% of all deaths of children under
five are caused by malnutrition.
[P4] When people suffer from under-nutrition, they are often deficient in vitamins and minerals needed
by the body. For example, they may not have enough Vitamin A. If this deficiency is not tackled,
eyesight may be permanently damaged. Lack of iron is another very common form of deficiency. This
helps to explain why about 50% of women in India suffer from some degree of anaemia.
[P5] Over-nutrition is usually associated with industrialised countries, although it is now also a problem
among affluent people in developing countries. The main problem is that the amount of energy
consumed in food is greater than the needs of the body and this can result in people becoming
overweight or obese. As with under-nutrition, this may lead them to become lethargic, less active and
less able to concentrate.
[P6] Further health problems will arise over time, particularly if the diet is high in saturated fat.
Saturated fat is solid at room temperature; examples include animal fats, dairy products and coconut
and palm oil. Eating a diet high in saturated fat raises blood cholesterol and the risk of heart disease.
People who are overweight or obese are more likely to suffer from coronary heart disease, type 2
diabetes, gallstones, arthritis, high blood pressure and some types of cancer.
[P7] Type 2 diabetes is a metabolic disorder in which the body has trouble making its own insulin to
control the level of sugar in the blood. Because it tends to develop in adults, it is also known as adult-
onset diabetes. However, growing numbers of young adults and children are now developing it.
