Why Cite? Give credit where it’s due Show you have researched and looked at what specialists have to say in a particular subject Reader, teacher or examiner may wish to check sources Sources cited should reflect the work done as a whole and are an important element of the whole essay/project process

Reference list, or Works cited At the end of your essay you should have a page titled “reference list” (use this rather than bibliography) Begin the list on a new page. Entries in a works-cited list are arranged in alphabetical order (whatever the format)

Referencing styles There are several styles. The most common are: MLA (Modern Language Association) APA (American Psychological Association) Chicago/Turabian Harvard (author-date)

Which one should I use? There is no prescribed style for presenting your list of resources consulted, but what is imperative is CONSISTENCY within your work. So choose one format and stick to it!

In The Harvard (author-date) system, Your references link with your in-text citations, so the reader can confirm the full publication details of the work cited in your text and be able to locate it.
