They are designed to help users find, identify, select, and obtain information resources of all types. Retrieval tools are essential as basic building blocks for a system that will organize as much of the world’s recorded information as possible. Paul Otlet and Henri LaFontaine dream of being able to provide access to all recorded information that has existed since 1892, so they organized a conference to create Universal Bibliographic Control (UBC). They wanted to create a central file that would include surrogate records particularly for scientific journals of the world. As UBC evolved throughout the twentieth century, it came to mean that each country of the world would be responsible for creation of surrogate records for its information recources and would share those surrogate records with all other countries. The concept was extended also to authority control of the headings for names and titles used as access points. Example of the retrieval tools are the bibliographies, catalogs, indexes, finding aids, registers and search engine and directories. In this task, we will be explaining more about bibliographies. The arrangement, the order and formatting, the types of bibliographies and the differences between bibliographies and reference are included in this task to gain more information about bibliographies. 3 IMC451: RETRIEVAL TOOLS WHAT IS BIBLIOGRAPHY? A bibliography is a list of books, scholarly articles, speeches, private records, diaries, interviews, laws, letters, websites, and other sources you use when researching a topic and writing a paper. The bibliography appears at the end. The main purpose of a bibliography entry is to give credit to authors whose work you've consulted in your research. It also makes it easy for a reader to find out more about your topic by delving into the research that you used to write your paper. The bibliography is the key element of a assignment which is used to judge the quality of the work done by the researcher. Therefore, use up-to-date resources and be sure you know how to cite the references. Please do not ignore the nuances of a bibliography. It exhibits your critical thinking, it proves you have read and understood your sources, it establishes your work as a valid source and you as a competent researcher, and it situates your study and topic in a continuing professional conversation. And lastly, your bibliography might stimulate other researchers to carry on further work on your chosen topic of research. 4 IMC451: RETRIEVAL TOOLS STYLES OF BIBLIOGRAPHY There are various styles used in the creation of bibliographies such as: 1.
