Cite Them Right is an online platform designed to advise students on how to reference correctly.
This platform contains articles and videos which help to guide students into common queries around referencing, including how to avoid plagiarism and understanding the differences between secondary and primary sources.
You can search for the specific source that you would like to reference:
- Books
- Journals
- Digital & Internet
- Media & Art
- Research
- Legal
- Governmental
- Communications.
Or you can browse by referencing style:
- Harvard
- APA 7th
- Chicago 18th
- Chicago 17th
- IEEE
- MLA 9th
and more.
Certain academic disciplines favor specific referencing styles as they align better with the types of texts commonly used in those fields. Your course instructor may suggest multiple styles depending on the assignment type.
Once you’ve found the source you’re interested in, you can use the dropdown menu to view the source in your required referencing style.
The "You try" feature on the source pages enables you to construct your own reference by replacing the example text with information relevant to your source.
You can either copy/paste your reference into an assignment or email it to yourself.
