In order to format your bibliography, you will need to either select a style manual, or use the style manual prescribed by your assignment or discipline.  Check out the Libraries' Citation Guides.

In order to assemble your bibliography, or find sources that you will read and then list in your bibliography.  You may do one or more of the following.

1. Use a general, multidisciplinary database like Academic Search Ultimate.  Here you will find articles and more on a wide variety of topics.

2. Use the Libraries' Research Guides.  Here you will find guides for research in all of the disciplines (majors).  Many of the research guides contain a "Getting Started" tab if you are deciding upon a topic.  There may even be a Research Guide for your exact course in the Course Guides.

3. Contact a Librarian.  Any librarian will be happy to help you!
