Referencing
The importance of accurate referencing within your assignments and reports cannot be overstated!

Why do I Reference?
Whether directly quoted or referred to, all sources you have used in your work must be referenced. It is the correct academic practice to recognise the contributions of others in this way, and it reduces the risk of plagiarism.

When do I reference it?
References must be given in the text of your piece of work whenever you use external evidence and information, such as:

• Direct quotes from a book or journal article
• Using someone’s ideas
• An author is mentioned in the piece of work
• Figures, graphs or other data are used

The system of referencing that the school adopts is the Harvard referencing system because it is the quickest, easiest, and most user-friendly system available. The Harvard system consists of two simple elements:

• A very short reference in the text
• A full reference in a separate list at the end of the piece of work. The reference list should be in alphabetical order according to the surname of the author. It should read as one entire list (journal, books, chapters, newspapers, websites etc.)

Full details of the correct way to reference can be found at referencing Guide at the University Library site
