Finding articles & 
Referencing
Aims of the session 
• Referencing – how to do it, hands on 
practice 
• Review of where to find online journal 
articles
What is referencing? 
• Keeping a record of where you found the information you 
have used in your assignment 
• UCS uses an Author-Date system of referencing known as 
HARVARD 
In-text citations Reference list/bibliography 
If you quote someone in the text 
of your work 
Bibliography – a list of all material 
consulted for your work 
Some courses also ask for a 
Reference list – this is a list of all 
works cited in the work 
Two parts to referencing
Why do I need to reference? 
• Keep track of your ideas – where you found information, the 
person marking you work will want to see where you have got 
your resources from 
• Proper referencing validates your own work by showing where 
your evidence has come from 
• Gives credit to the work of others - spreads knowledge – 
others can find out more 
What is plagarism? 
• Presenting someone else’s work as your own 
• Using another person’s work without properly crediting them 
• Quoting someone else without citing the original in your source 
• Making small changes to someone else’s work and pretending it is your 
own
Methods of recording material 
A-Z Notebook – record your entries alphabetically in a simple 
notebook 
Index cards – record entries alphabetically 
Word document – keep a word document of your references 
RefWorks – Online electronic system 
Zotero- Online plugin for Firefox, free, similar to RefWorks 
• Get into the habit of recording your sources as you use 
them – it will save you time in the long run
In-text citations – direct 
quotations 
• In-text citations are made up of the following elements 
• Author or editors name, followed by a comma 
• Date of publication, followed by a comma 
• Page number(s) 
• And the citation is enclosed by brackets 
Example: 
“Conceptual and subsequent postmodern critiques of photography 
have long been institutionalized” (Miles, 2010, p.57)
Summarising or paraphrasing 
someone else 
• You need to acknowledge the source of the original source 
• Include the authors name in your text, 
• Bracket the year of publication 
• Include the page number that you are referring to 
Example 
• In a recent article Miles (2010, P. 57) describes documentary 
photography as....
Main reference list -what do I 
need to record 
• Each reference is made up of a number of elements

Common elements include
