You must prepare a list of references giving complete citations for all papers, books, etc., referred to in the text. You do not, however, include literature sources you may have read, but do not specifically cite in the text. The list is compiled alphabetically by last name of the author, or first author if more than one. For journal articles the format is: name; year of publication; complete title of article; title of journal; volume; pages. For books - name; year; title of book; publisher; city of publication; total number of pages in book. Examples are given below.
