ORGANISING YOUR SOURCES

Bibliography

This is a list of titles arranged alphabetically by the author’s (or editor’s) surname, and should be arranged in the following format:

• Author/editor (surname first, followed by initial or first name)
• Title of book (underlined or in italics)
• Publisher
• Year of publication

(All of this can be found on the title page and its reverse)

Example:

Hughes, R., The Shock of the New, Art and the Century of Change, BBC, 1980.

Lucie-Smith, E., Art Today, Phaidon, 1995.

Magazines and Periodicals

• Author
• Title of article (in ‘single inverted commas’)
• Journal title (underlined or in italics)
• Volume and issue number
• Date of publication

Example:

Nochlin, L., ‘Picasso’s Color: Schemes and Gambits’, Art in America, vol. 68, no. 10, Dec. 1980, pp. 177-183.

Websites and Internet Sources
