An annotated bibliography is a the study of books as physical objects like list of citations to

REFERENCE
the detailed description of the document
from which you have obtained your
information. Referencing is a way of
demonstrating that you have done that
reading.
Reference Vs. Bibliography
*The terms References and Bibliography are often used same, but there is a
difference in meaning between them.

*References are the items you have read and specifically referred to (or cited) in
your work, and your list of sources at the end of the assignment will be headed
References.

*Bibliography is a list of everything you read -whether or not you referred

specifically to it .

* A bibliography can give a tutor an overview of which authors have influenced

your ideas and arguments even if you do not specifically refer to them.
Why do we need reference?

*To acknowledge others works

*To allow others (readers) to find the original sources easily (cited reference)

*To get recognition & authentication of the work.

*To make the work informative. (Quality)

*To trace the intellectual development of the ideas you present.

Source of References
*Book

*Journal

*Newspaper / magazine

*Conference paper/proceedings

*Institutional / Government publication

*Electronic sources- Website, CD-ROM, Databases

Theses/ Reports/ unpublished works etc.
Some basics

*Work by Three to Five Authors:

List all the authors the first time you cite the source. (Kernis, Cornell, Sun,
Berry, & Harlow, 1993)
In subsequent citations, (Kernis et al., 1993)

*Organization as an Author:
If the author is an organization or a government agency, According to the
American Psychological Association (2000),...
If the organization has a well-known abbreviation
First citation: (Mothers Against Drunk Driving [MADD], 2000) Second
citation: (MADD, 2000)
Continued.....

*Two or More Works (Berndt, 2002; Harlow, 1983)

Authors With the Same Last Name:
use first initials (E. Johnson, 2001; L. Johnson, 1998)

*Personal Communication:
For interviews, e-mails, and other person-to-person communication,
cite the communicator's name and the date of the
communication. E.g.

Summary
*Referencing are important part of research work.

*It is a way of acknowledging others work and helps to avoid plagiarism.

*There are several referencing style manuals.

*Which style to follow depends on the field of research and university guidelines
The most important thing is to be consistent with a particular referencing styles.

*There are several referencing tools and software available (which makes things
simpler!) but still manual checking for their correctness is necessary.
