As Language students, you will be asked to use the APA 7th referencing style. 

Why we reference

 

At university you are expected to reference information sources used in your assignments. Referencing is important as it:

  • gives credit to authors
  • shows that you’ve done your research  
  • means that others can find the resources you have used.
