Bibliographic elements are the pieces of information used to describe a book, journal/periodical/magazine, newspaper, or Internet resource. this descriptive information is used to create a bibliography (sometimes known as a Reference List or Works Cited). Every citation format or style includes the same four elements: author, date, title, and source (which may be the book publisher, the journal information for an article, and the electronic information like DOI). This information comes from the title page of a book or journal, the electronic record in a database,or the label on a CD or DVD. For a website, look at the top and bottom of a page or in the "About" section to find author, title, publisher, and date. For help, consult an instructor or a librarian.
