If you are an undergraduate student, or studying a taught masters level course, then your school will specify which referencing style you need to use throughout your degree. Different disciplines have varying referencing requirements so if you're not sure check with your lecturer or tutor before starting to write.

Our referencing handbooks are all available to download from our referencing page. If you have any questions about resources not covered by these guides please contact your Academic Subject Librarian for advice.

If you are a on a research course then you may need to change your referencing style if you're planning to publish in a particular journal. Your Academic Subject Librarian will be able to advise on how to identify what this is if you need help.
