List of References: APA

A list of references is generally provided for academic work, and contains details only of those
works actually cited in the document. Sometimes the term Bibliography is used; however this
refers to a list of related source material that is not necessarily cited in the document.
Remember:
• A list of references should appear on a separate sheet of paper at the end of an assignment
and is generally titled References.
• This list contains bibliographic details of every work cited in your assignment.
• The list must be arranged alphabetically by authors’ surnames. If there is more than one
work by the same author, then arrange chronologically i.e. earlier publication dates before
later dates.
• All reference sources (e.g. books, journal articles, websites etc.) are listed together in one continuous reference list.
• Correct punctuation is important.
• Note minimal capitalisation of book titles and maximal capitalisation of journal titles.
