METHODS OF CITATIONS:

Information or the matcrial referred in the rescarch papcr can bc cited in two ways by the
rescarcher:

In-Text Citations: In-text citations are citations that are inserted in the main text of the
papcr. The purpose of these citations is to let the reader know from where aspecific picce
of information came. The rescarcher must cite all information that he quotcs dircty from
another source, paraphrase, or summarize using in-text citations.

Bibliography Reference List Citation: Bibliographies are called different things


depending on which citation style the researcher is using. In MLA, for example, it is called
the Works Cited page, and in APA, it is called the References page. The bibliography
shows the reader all relevant information regarding sources.

A. FOOTNOTES: -

As the name suggests footnotes are notes placed at the bottom of apage. Footnotes give
the sourcec of authority of the statements of the text, They cite references or commerit on a
designated part of the text above it. They are meant for cross reference with the text.
Therefore, notes at the foot (bottomn) of the page are called footnotes.
Footnotes serve the purposes of identifying the material used in quotations in the report. ne
notice of this material is not immediately necessary to the body of the research text bul sl
of supplemental value.
The detinition of footnote is"a note of reference, explanation, or comment placed below thd
text on a printed page."
Afew footnote usage ules arc as follows:
"Footnotes are numbered consecutively throughout the rescarch paper, not restarting
numbering on cach page
" Each quotation requires a footnote.
"Footnotes are placed at the bottom of the page on which the reference or quotation, wncn
they identify or supplement, ends.
"Footnotes are always typed in single space, though they are divided in double-spaccd.

to read the reference without having to turn to the end of the text, which would
disrupt the flow of the text and hamper smooth reading.
The format of writinga footnote is as follows: - First Name Last Name, Title of Book (Place of
publication: Publisher, Year of publication), page number.
Antony Grafton, The Footnote: ACurious History (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press.
1999), 221.

Advantages of Using Footnotes
1) Readers interested in identifying the source or note can quickly glance down the page to find
what they are looking for.
2) It allows the reader to immediately link the footnote to the subject of the text without having
to take thc time to find the note at the back of the paper.

3) Footnotes are automatically included when printing off specific pagcs.


Disadvantages of Using Footnotes
1) Footnotes can clutter up the page and, thus, negatively affect the overall look of the page.
2) 1 there are multiple columns, charts, or tables below only asmall segment of text that
includes a footnote, then you must decide where the footnotes should appear.
3) If the footnotes are lengthy, there's a risk they could dominate the page, although this issue is
considered acceptable in legal scholarship.

FOOTNOTES V, ENDNOTES

Footnotes are located at the foot of page Endnotes are at the end of chapter, volume or
cntirc work.
It is easy to gain infonation from footnotes The readers have to move back and forth
since they are casy to find betwecn the main text and the cndnotes.
Affect thc layout of pagcs Do not affcct the layout of pagcs.

"Readers of academic and scholarly books usually prefer footnotes to endnotes because the former
allows them to skim the notes without losing their place in the text. Popular wisdom, however,
says that non-scholarly readers are either reluctant or unwilling to purchase anonfiction trade book
whose feet are hemmed with ribbons of tiny typc: thus most trade books place (the shop term is
"bury) the notes containing sources and references at the back of the book.

C.REFERENCES:

According to Merriam Webster, References are defined as, "the act of referring or consulting."A
reference list is acomplete list of references used in apiece of writing including the author's name,
date of publication,title and more. In other publication styles, this list may be called abitbliography
or works cited, but APA used the term reference list. Areference page is the last page of an essay
or research paper that has been written in APA style.
Thus, reference page format is unique to APA style. An APA reference list must:
Be on a new page at the end of the docurnent.
Be centrcd.
"Be alphabctically by the last name of the author.
Contain full refcrences for all in-text references used.

(Einsohn,Amy. TheCopyeditor'sHandbook, Universityof Californla Press, 2006.)

"Use ellipses if there are more than 7authors.
"List sources bythe same author is chronological erder.
"Indent cach line atler the first line of each source.

D.BIBLIOGRAPHY: -

Abibliograplhy tells the reader what sources have been used in an article. It lists all the books,
articles, and other references that are cited in or used to inform your work. Bibliographies are
typically fomatted according to one of three styles: American Psychological Association
(APA) for scientific papers, Moderm Language Association (MLA) for humanities papers, and
Chicago Manual of Style (CMS) for the social sciences. According to the Cambridge
Dictionary, bibliography is defined as, "A list of the books and articles that have been used by
someone when writing aparticular book or article." Bibliography literally means "booklist'.
At the cnd of a rescarch report, all primary and sccondary sourccs of data, reference books,
periodicals, articles, reports, unpublished material, pamphlets, films, records and other
references must be listed under the title Bibliography.It should contain all those works which
the rescarcher has consulted.
The purpose of a bibliography is to provide wih a fair chance to estimate the thoroughness
and exhaustiveness of the report. Bibliography consists of the particulars of the literature
referred to and actually utilizcd in the preparation of the research report. The bibliography
should be arranged alphabetically and may be divided into two parts; the first part may contain
the names of books and pamphlets, and the second part may contain the names of magg2he
and newspaper articles, Aibliography begins on a new page at the end of the report. IAollows
the main text and isaseparate part offhe thesis.
The following order is usually observed while writing the reference:
a) Name of the Author
b) Title of the book
c) Publisher's address
d) Year of publication
c) Page number

E.WEBLIOGRAPHY:

Awebliography is much like a bibliography, but is limited to acollection of online


resources rather
than books and academic journals. The term wcbliography is commonly uscd when iscussing
online resources. It is referred to as "Web Bibliography."
Accordingly, awebliography is alist'of resources relating to aparticular topic that can be accessed
on the World Wide Web, and can be referred to in a scholarly work. Therefore, webliography is
an online bibliography that lists, hyperlinks websites, and digital information around a single topic,
Researchers can use the webliographics to find links to relevant information and cite those links
one-by-one.
According to Oxford, webliography is defined as "A list (either printed or online) of clectronic
works or documents relating to a particular topic."

CITATION STYLES

AGtation style is aset of rules on how to cite sources in academic writing. Whenever you refer to
someone clse's work, a citation is requircd to avoid plagiarism.
Acitation style dictates the information ncccssary for acitation and how the information is ordered,
as well as punctuation and other formatting.
Citation style guidelines are often published in an official handbook containing explanations,
examples, and instructions. The most common citation styles are as follows:
APA (American Psychological Association)
MLA (Modern Language Association)

OTHER CITATION STYLES

1. Hanvard System
Harvard referencing style is often used in the field of cconomics. There is no official style guide,
which means there are a few variations. Like APA style, Harvard style is based on an author-date
system.
2. Vancouyer
Vancouver style was developed by the International Committee of Medical Joumal Editors
((CMJE) and is mostly used in medical disciplines. Vancouver style works with anumeric system.
In the text, the source is indicated by a number, and the full source details appear next to hat
mumber in the reference list.

3. Chicago
Chicago style is published by The Chicago Manual of Style. The Chicago Manual of Style provides
guidelines for two styles of citation: author-date and notes and bibliography:
"In notes and bibliography style (mostly used in the humanities), you use footnotes or endnotes
to cite sources.
"E.g. Author's last name, first name. Title of Book. Place of publication: publisher, year.
" In author-date style (mostly used in the sciences), you use brief parenthetical references to cite
sources in the text.
" E.g, Author's last name, first name. Ycar. Title of Book. Placc of publication:
