Referencing is an essential part of academic writing. When you refer to an idea or information created by someone else, you should always include a reference to the publication in which it appears.
The Library provides advice and guidance on how to reference correctly, and Subject Librarians can provide help and training on referencing.
We also provide access to Cite Them Right, which allows you to browse over 150 different source types and see examples of how to reference them correctly in various referencing styles.
You may wish to use reference management software. These tools helps you collect, store and organise references from a variety of sources.
