RERERENCING: Bibliography |
|||||||||||||||
|
As you read and research for an essay you have to make note of the sources that you consult and list them up in a bibliography or reference list. What is the difference between a Reference and Bibliography List?
General rules for Bibliographies and References:
There are different styles of referencing and you have to consult your Department for the style that it recommends. There are styles like the Modern Linguistics Association (MLA), American Psychological Association (APA) and Harvard. We shall consider the APA style below: The Basic layout in the APA style: Author(year). Title. Edition (other than first). Place of publication: Publisher. Examples: Books: If the book has two authors,
you include both of them and separate their names with “and”. Ancient Egyptian Culture. (1998). Leichardt: Sandstone. Magazines: For these include both
the title of the article and the magazine. E.g. Newspapers: The same as that for magazines. Encyclopedia: Use latest publication
date. E.g.: Pohlmann, Ken C. (2001). “Recording Industry”.World Book Encyclopedia. Vol.16, p.180-182. Chicago: World Book.
E.G.: Australia’s Religious Communities. (CD-ROM). (2000). Kew: Christian Research Association. EMAIL: Sender. (Sender’s email address). (Day Month Year). Subject of message. Email to recipient (recipient’s email address) E.g.: Author/Editor. (Year). Title. (Internet). Place of Publication: Publisher. Available from: URL (Date accessed) E.g.: Backer, Patricia. (2002).
