Bibliography Cards - What’s the Point? Bibliography cards serve three purposes: 1.Well written bibliography cards allow you to find your source information quickly. 2.They allow you to prepare documentation for your paper. 3.Bibliography cards also allow you to prepare the Works Cited list that appears at the end of your paper.

Bibliography Cards (cont.) Documentation is material included in a research paper to identify the sources from which information was taken. The Works Cited list is a complete record of the sources referred to in the paper.

The first line begins in the upper left-hand corner of the card. Subsequent lines are indented a few spaces. Hayashi, Tetsumaro.
