To reference your work correctly, you must:

• Know which referencing style you need to use: Harvard, APA, OSCOLA or another?
• Know how to quote, paraphrase or summarise the work you are discussing
• Put the in text references (citations) into your work correctly
• Include a complete reference list or bibliography for your assignment
• Use the correct format of referencing for your source (e.g. a book, website or journal article).

Why not check your understanding of referencing by taking one of the quizzes (see below)?
