When creating your Bibliographies

• Be sure to indent 5 spaces when a
  citation continues onto a second until the end of
  the citation, and always end citations with a
  period.
• Place citations in alphabetical order
  by the first word of each citation.
• When information needed for the
  citation is missing, just leave the missing
  information out and continue with the next part
  of the citation.
