Are bibliographies, reference pages, and works cited pages all the same thing?

Bibliographies, reference pages, and works cited pages are all terms that refer to a list of sources used to create a text. This list typically comes at the end of a document. The term you should use depends on which citation style you are using.

• APA Style uses the term “reference list,” and the title “References” appears at the top of the page. 
• MLA style uses the term “list of works cited,” and the title “Works Cited” appears at the top of the page.
• Chicago notes and bibliography style uses the term “bibliography,” and the title “Bibliography” appears at the top of the page.
• Chicago author-date style uses the term “reference list,” and the title “References” or “Works Cited” appears at the top of the page.
