Using Microsoft Word for referencing and bibliographies

In text referencing in Microsoft Word 2007
The easiest way to do this is to insert references into your word document as you go.

Put the cursor in the text you want to reference in Microsoft Word and go to:
'References' tab -
'Insert Citation' -
'Add New Source'.
Choose where your source is from i.e. website, newspaper, text etc, and enter details about the publication.


Generate a Bibliography in Microsoft Word 2007
When you have written your document and entered all your references, you can generate a Bibliography by clicking:
'Bibliography' in the References tab,
then clicking 'Insert Bibliography'
​

Doing referencing in Google Docs...

There is a research tab under tools which you can use to cite and then copy this into your own bibliography. (Google Docs doesn't generate a bibliography).

The website citethisforme.com is a good online bibliography generator.
