Writing your bibliography
At GLSC we recommend that you use the Harvard system of referencing.
You can generate a bibliography in a Microsoft Word document as per the instructions on this page .
or
you can use an online generator (see below) that will put the required information in the right order to be copied and pasted into your document (this will be simpler than typing it in yourself). Bibiliography information is listed in a certain order - like this:
For a book:
Surname, first name, year published, title, publisher, place of publishing.
eg. Cochrane, A 2007, Understanding urban policy: a critical approach, Blackwell Publishing, Malden, MA.
for a document from a website:
Surname, first name, year published, title, date viewed, url address
eg. Welch, N 2000, Toward an understanding of the determinants of rural health, viewed 9 January 2002, http://www.ruralhealth.org.au/welch.htm
or
You can write it out yourself in this order:
for a document from a website:
Surname, first name, year published, title, date viewed, url address
A bibliography is listed alphabetically on a separate page from the essay/report.
