[LM_NET] Works Cited vs. Bibliography

[Katherine McCabe <KMcCabe@BRIARCLIFFSCHOOLS.ORG>]

A "Works Cited" list is a list of references that you actually cite
within the text of the paper. A "Bibliography" is a list of books, no
electronic sources. A "List of Sources" is a  list of references that
students referred to when researching their topic.

These 3 are all different, but for the purpose of creating a title for
the list at the end of student papers, we have our students use "Works
Cited." 
Colleges and universities, especially at the masters level, may ask
students to hand in both a "Works Cited" list as well as a "List of
Sources" so high school students should be familiar with all 3.
