Task: Bibliography.

  After finally being introduced to the library system and how to access copious amounts of information across a number of institutes, we were set the task of creating a short bibliography, including two books, two journal articles and two contributions to books.  You'll find this below; on a similar note, Zotero is stupid when it comes to Google Chrome, so this could go drastically wrong.

Moock, C., 2007. Essential ActionScript 3.0 1st ed., Adobe Dev Library.

Rosenzweig, G., 2011. ActionScript 3.0 Game Programming University 2nd ed., QUE.
Turner, M.C., 2006. GAMES PEOPLE PLAY. Black Enterprise, 36(10), p.53.
Weinstein, A.M., 2010. Computer and Video Game Addiction—A Comparison between Game Users and Non-Game Users. American Journal of Drug & Alcohol Abuse, 36(5), pp.268-276.

Caillois, R. 2006. "The Definition of Play. The Classification of Games". Salen. K and Zimmermann.E. The Game Design Reader: A Rules of Play Anthology. London. 122-155.

Jenkins, H. 2006. "Complete Freedom of Movement: Video Games as Gendered Play Space". Salen. K and Zimmermann.E. The Game Design Reader: A Rules of Play Anthology. London. 330-363.

I'm hoping the final two contributions are correct, took a while to fathom the procedure and find the contributions themselves.

    Some small manual tweaks are often required to get things rights (eg adding a place of publiscation, normalising capitalisation, etc), but when your Zotero database is done, it doesn't need to be changed again.

    With the Colin Moock book, it may be that O'Reilly is the publisher while Adobe Developer Library is the series; or it may be a co-publishing enterprise (in which case both should be cited). Edition is always assumed to be first, so it is only stated for other editions (second, revised, etc).

    With a contribution to a book the word "in" denotes the parent or containing publication. Bibliographies should be ordered in alphabetical order of author surname.

    Have a look at my bibliography for an example:
