Bibliography

A structured list of sources associated with a work, author, or subject. It can document sources used or point to material recommended for further study.

Citation: A reference that identifies a source used, quoted, or discussed in a work. Citations connect individual claims to sources that a bibliography may list in fuller form.
Annotated bibliography: A bibliography whose entries include brief summaries or evaluations of the listed sources. Annotations add evidence about each source's content and usefulness.
Works cited: A list of sources directly cited in a work. Unlike a broader bibliography, a works-cited list usually excludes sources not cited in the text.
Pinakes: A catalog of Greek literature attributed to Callimachus and associated with the Library of Alexandria. It is an early large-scale attempt to organize works by author and subject.
Bibliographic record: A structured description of a publication, typically recording its author, title, publisher, and date. Each bibliography entry is built from descriptive details like these.
National bibliography: A systematic record of publications produced in or about a particular country. National bibliographies document a country's publishing output rather than sources for one work.
Reference list: A list of sources cited in a scholarly or professional work. Many style systems use this narrower list where other traditions call for a bibliography.
Library of Alexandria: An ancient institution in Alexandria that collected and studied texts from across the Mediterranean world. Its collections and scholarly cataloging helped establish precedents for bibliographic work.
Bibliographic control: The organization and standardization of information about published works for identification and discovery. Bibliographies are compact products of the wider effort to describe and organize publications.
Literature review: A structured account and evaluation of existing research on a defined topic. A bibliography can supply the sources a literature review discusses and assesses.
