Which referencing style should I use?

​

  • Remember to check your unit and assessment guides for any instructions about specific referencing styles.

  • If using other referencing and citation tools, be sure to check that any citations they may generate actually match unit requirements.

  • APA 7th Edition is a relatively common author-date referencing style.

  • Many courses allow students to use simpler referencing styles, but remember:

​
