Hi, Denis. The order of sources in a reference list or bibliography will depend on the referencing system used. Most are alphabetical, but some, such as Vancouver-style systems, list sources in the order they are first cited in a document. I do not know of any systems that list sources in the order of publication, but some in-house styles might do so. The key as a proofreader is to know which system your client is using and to follow the relevant style guide.

I came across one that had the listing from the year of publication—from the earliest to the most recent.
