Unit 9: APA referencing

List of references

At the end of your work, under the heading References, list in full all of the sources that you have cited. Your references list should be

  • written in alphabetical order by the first author's last name, and
  • double spaced.

Here's how:

And finally....

  • Keep track of everything you consult while you research your piece of work
  • Note down all the details you will need to reference each source in full before you start taking notes
  • Write down the page numbers of any quotes you note
  • If you are unsure about the date or place of publication, check Voyager, the library catalogue
  • Make sure you follow the APA style carefully and accurately. Use the model examples in this tutorial to help you.
  • You can find more information on the APA style web site
  • APA style is available on RefWorks, contact your librarian for more information
