Basics of writing references |
|
A reference list lists only the sources you refer to in your writing. The purpose of the reference list is to allow your sources to be be found by your reader. It also gives credit to authors you have consulted for their ideas. All references cited in the text must appear in the reference list, except for personal communications (such as conversations or emails) which cannot be retrieved. Here is the most common referencing sources: |
|
| Journal articles | Books | Book chapters | Websites | Conferences | Thesis | Reports | |
|
|
For more specific references visit AUT Library Website or use a free generator of APA sources (Scribbr) |
