What is a list of resources used to write a nonfiction piece and properly credit and document the work of others?

• A. Appendix
• B. Index
• C. Bibliography
• D. Glossary

Answer: (C)

Understanding how writers document sources for nonfiction is about giving proper credit to the ideas and information from others. A bibliography is a list at the end of a piece that names all the resources used to write the work, with full publication details so readers can find them. This helps readers verify facts and see the research behind the writing, and it clearly credits the original authors.

The other options do different jobs: an appendix adds extra material; an index helps you locate topics in the text; a glossary provides definitions of terms. None of these serve as the formal list of sources and documentation that shows where information came from and who wrote it.
