tips when creating bibliography/source cards
 

You will be using these cards to create your Works Cited page and to make things easier it is recommended that you put the information about the source on the bib/source card in the same order as the information appears in the citation. 

Your instructor might also add information they wish you to include on your bib card.  They might want you to include the search topic used to locate the information or a numbering system that will correspond to your note cards.

Check the structure for details:
