[Tex/LaTex] Combine single and double space

bibliographiesspacing

I need to write a bibligraphy with single space for each entry, but double space between entries, before inserting the bibliography I write

\begin{singlespace}

which makes the whole thing single spaced, is there a way I can order that between entries there should be double space?

\documentclass{report}

\usepackage{booktabs}
\usepackage{tabularx}
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage{setspace} 

\usepackage{titlesec}

\RequirePackage{setspace}[1998/04/8]

\begin{document}

\title{Three Essays on Meritocracy for Teachers and Teacher Quality in Colombia} 

\tableofcontents  

\listoffigures 

\listoftables

\topmatter{Acknowledgments}

\topmatter{Abstract}

\clearpage

\newpage

\newpage \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{References}  

\begin{singlespace}

bibligraphy should go here

\end{singlespace} 

The document class is report and the relevant packages are

\usepackage{booktabs}

\usepackage{tabularx}

\usepackage{multirow}

\usepackage{setspace}

\usepackage{titlesec}

\RequirePackage{setspace}[1998/04/8]

And this is what I'm running

\title{Three Essays on Meritocracy for Teachers and Teacher Quality in Colombia}

\tableofcontents

\listoffigures

\listoftables

\topmatter{Acknowledgments}

\topmatter{Abstract}

\clearpage

\newpage

\newpage \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{References}

\begin{singlespace}

bibligraphy should go here

\end{singlespace}

Thanks!

The natbib package provides a parameter just for doing what you need: add

\setlength{\bibsep}{\baselineskip} % or 6pt or ...

or whatever length you prefer; this will leave a blank line between two items.
