Help with referencing: Home

These pages will help you with citing and referencing. Referencing means acknowledging your source if you use someone else's work. Most students at SHU will use the APA referencing style. Some courses will use other referencing styles.

Our current advice for students using APA referencing is based on the 6th edition of the APA's Publication Manual: APA 6.  A new, 7th, edition has been published and from September our advice will be updated to support APA 7.  For continuing students there will be transitional arrangements to allow work already started to be submitted using APA 6.
