Writing references

When you write an academic text, you must cite and refer to your sources correctly. This applies regardless of whether you are writing an essay or other scholarly texts.

This page provides information on why you should reference and how to write and manage your references.

You can also read about what support the library can offer you who want to get started with EndNote as a reference management system in your research.

Why references?

A introduction to why it is important to refer (film from Lund University).

 

 

  • APA
  • Harvard
  • Oxford
  • Vancouver

Reference management system

Simplify your research or studies by using a reference management system, for example EndNote.
