Library workshop: APA referencing

Before writing your reference list or bibliography, check with teaching staff which style to use and refer to the instructions included with your assessment. If you are required to use an author-date referencing style, APA referencing is the style to apply.

This library workshop will introduce you to the APA (American Psychological Association) referencing system, based on the information from the  Publication manual of the American Psychological Association (7th ed.).

Join this online interactive workshop to develop or improve your APA referencing skills:

• presenting referencing information within the flow of your writing/assessment
• citing books, articles, websites and more
• compiling a reference list
• including DOIs and live hyperlinks.
