Referencing series: Why and when do you need to reference?

Referencing is about signalling when sources have played a role in your assignments and at the same time giving due credit to other writers.

This short video - which is part of the Why and How of Referencing series – goes over Why and When you would include references in your assignments.

We also offer a live version of this session – see the library website page for details of when the next live session is running. (Open to current OU staff and students only.)
