Bibliographies

Bibliographies are generally set in a smaller point size than the main text and with extra lead between entries. Leading is fairly tight but probably not solid, as measures are apt to be rather wide; bibliographies, like endnotes, are typically set in a one-column format. The extra lead may be eliminated where a series of references are made to works by the same author (see Figure 14.22).

Figure 14.22. Bibliography entries are typically separated from each other by some added lead, in this case half a line space. The exception is a series of entries by the same author. In these cases, the author’s name is typically not repeated but replaced by a series of three em dashes.
