How to create a Bibliography with HTML?

Bibliography is a list of the written sources of information on a subject. We use <cite> tag in HTML, to create a bibliography section. The <cite> tag defines the work on a subject. The <cite> tag is also used to add work title a song, a painting, a movie, etc. It indicates citation and whatever comes inside the tag represents work title.

The text between the <cite> tag renders in italic format.

We use <ol> tag to list the items and <cite> tag to add the title of the subject.

Syntax

Following is the syntax for the <cite> tag.

<cite> Work title</cite>

Example 1

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
   <meta charset="UTF-8">
   <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
   <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
</head>
<body>
   <ol type="1">
