Citing References: why and how to do it


Rowena Stewart [email protected] JCM Library Tel: 0131 650 5207 (int. 50 5207)

Why cite references:


To allow those reading the record of what youve done to read the sources you have read. To credit, and show you have read, the key relevant work and can use it to support your arguments and so indicate where your work has taken you further. Citing and referencing work you have read and used avoids plagiarism. Paragraph 14.1 of the University of Edinburgh Undergraduate and Postgraduate (Taught) Assessment Regulations: Academic Year 2006, states: Plagiarism is the act of copying or including in ones own work, without adequate acknowledgement, intentionally or unintentionally, the work of another. It is academically fraudulent and an offence against University discipline. Plagiarism, at whatever stage of a students course, whether discovered before or after graduation, will be investigated and dealt with appropriately by the University (Regulation 14: Plagiarism and Cheating, 2006)

Glossary
Citation : short reference in the body of your text to a relevant work Reference List : full bibliographic details of the references cited in your text Further Reading : full bibliographic details of work which has influenced you but is not cited in your text. Bibliography : full bibliographic details of references cited in your text and of work which has influenced you but are not cited in your text. Less used in scientific and technical publications.

How to cite and list references:


The principles are to provide enough information for someone else to find what you have read and present the information consistently. There are conventions and styles to help you do this: Author-Date or Harvard (provides information about a reference in the text) Citation: authors last name, year of publication Reference Lists are arranged alphabetically by author Numbered, Numerical or Alphabet-Number (avoids hiatus in the text and are good for references without publication dates) Citation: number in brackets or as superscript. The numbers follow consecutively unless a reference has already been cited, in which case the original number is used each time. Reference Lists are arranged by citation number, each reference occurring only once Citation Order (not usually used in scientific/technical publications) Citation: number in square brackets or as superscript. The numbers follow consecutively. Reference Lists are arranged by citation number and the abbreviations ibid, op cit are used to refer to references cited in full further up the reference list. The specific styles mentioned in this guide are Harvard and IEEE. If the reference types illustrated do not cover everything you need, please use the sources given throughout or contact your liaison librarian.

HARVARD REFERENCING STYLE


N.B. If you are preparing a paper for publication, the editorial board or publishers of the journal to which you want to submit will have decided what format citations and lists of references should take and will make the information available to authors. LATEX style guides may also be available for download.

Citing References in the body of your text


If an author is named in the text, enclose the year of publication of the relevant work in parentheses after the authors last name. Example: As well as telling us longer quotes may be indented and comments interpolated in square brackets, Russell (1993) also says: A short quotation placed at the head of a passage [or at the very beginning of a work] is an epigraph. Do not use quotations marks with epigraphs. Identify the source below the quotation. If it is a quote, idea, principle, etc which is included in the text, but not the relevant authors of the quote, idea etc, use parentheses to enclose the last name and year beside the relevant piece of text. If you are referring to a particular part of a work, give the associated page number(s). Example: Shorter quotations do not need to be indented but are denoted by the use of double quotation marks (Russell, 1993, p11). Two or Three Authors: (Gerndt and Kranzlmuller, 2006) (Smith, Lee and Brown, 2007) More than three authors: (Hein et al., 2005) Same author(s) but multiple publications from the same year: (Atiyah, 1995a) (Atiyah, 1995b) Unknown author: (Anon, 2007) No author: (use part of the title, date) Using some work as representative: (eg Dreyfus, 1991; Schmid and Henningson, 2001)

Personal communication
Where you have to use information that has come to you as an individual rather than presented in the published literature, you indicate this to be personal communication and do so in the text of your document. You do not need to include such sources in a reference list. Example: e.g. Many designers do not understand the needs of disabled people according to J. O. Reiss (personal communication, April 18, 1997). Before referring to what someone has told you, ask them if they will allow you to do so.

Secondary References
If you refer to a work of which the only account you have read is that recorded in the work of someone else, you need to make it clear you have not read the original work. In the reference list, some sources direct authors to provide only the reference of the work they have actually read; be consistent or take advice. Examples: Lee (1993) as cited by Smith (2000) then include both works in your reference list Lee as cited by Smith (2000) then include only the work you have actually read, ie the Smith article You have to have confidence in the source you have read to rely on it like this. Even work cited by reputable sources may bear scrutiny; see the minireview published by Thomas Katz (2005) on a mistake perpetuated in the literature on olefin metatheses.

Illustrations, Figures or Data


Having considered copyright in their use, you should cite and reference any illustrations, graphs, data or figures, etc you take or adapt from another published work. If you do not amend the illustration etc in any way, reference the work as if it were a quotation, if you do amend the work, indicate this in the citation Example: Figure 1 Answers blowing in the wind (University of the West of England, 2006) If the illustration is of a work from a known library, collection or repository, give the location as outlined in 16.4.1 of British Standard BS 1629:1989 (British Standards Institution, 1989).

Format of the Reference List Harvard Style


The Reference List contains the full citation of those references cited in your text. In Harvard style the reference list is arranged alphabetically by authors last name (or equivalent for the particular reference). N.B. - The font formats and punctuation used here may differ from other versions of Harvard Style you see. Use the one which is right for you and apply it consistently.

IEEE REFERENCING STYLE


See links from IEEE Author Digital Toolbox at: http://www.ieee.org/web/publications/authors/transjnl/index.html
N.B. If you are preparing a paper for publication, the editorial board or publishers of the journal to which you want to submit will have decided what format citations and lists of references should take and will make the information available to authors. LATEX style guides may also be available for download.

In the Body of the Text (Citing your References)


Refer to a reference in a sentence thus [87], unless at the beginning of a sentence when you can begin. Reference [87] shows... Example: Shorter quotations do not need to be indented but are denoted by the use of double quotation marks [2]. Reference [2] also tells us longer quotes may be indented and comments interpolated in square brackets and: A short quotation placed at the head of a passage [or at the very beginning of a work] is an epigraph. Do not use quotations marks with epigraphs. Identify the source below the quotation.

Secondary References
If you refer to a work of which the only account you have read is that recorded in the work of someone else, you need to make it clear you have not read the original work. In the reference list, some sources direct authors to provide only the reference of the work they have actually read; be consistent or take advice. Examples: Lee [88] as cited by Smith [89] then include both works in your reference list Lee as cited by Smith [88] then include only the work you have actually read, ie the Smith article You have to have confidence in the source you have read to rely on it like this. Even work cited by reputable sources may bear scrutiny; see the minireview published by Thomas Katz [3] on a mistake perpetuated in the literature on olefin metatheses.

Illustrations, Figures or Data


Having considered copyright in their use, you should cite and reference any illustrations, graphs, data or figures, etc you take or adapt from another published work. If you do not amend the illustration etc in any way, reference the work as if it were a quotation, if you do amend the work, indicate this in the citation Example: Fig. 1. Answers blowing in the wind [4] If the illustration is of a work from a known library, collection or repository, give the location as outlined in 16.4.1 of British Standard BS 1629:1989 [5].

Format of the Reference List IEEE Style


The Reference List contains the full citation of those references cited in your text. In IEEE style the reference list is arranged sequentially by citation number. All Authors should be given in a reference unless there are six or more when et al. should be used [6]. However, there are articles in IEEE Journals in which this convention has not been used and all authors are listed. Be consistent in what you choose to do, or take advice.
