Reference lists
What you should know about a reference list:
- It is an alphabetical list of every source you have referred to in your writing.
- It appears at the end of your essay or report.
- It gives credit to the authors you have referred to in your writing.
- It helps the reader locate the source of information.
- It should be written on a new page.
- Make sure you indent the second and subsequent lines of your reference list.
- The format for each type of source is different.
