Worried about referencing? Feeling overwhelmed by all the different types of sources you will need to reference? Unsure how to seamlessly integrate your references into your academic work?
From 27 November to 1 December, you can expect a week of engaging workshops led by experts from the Library, Skills for Success and IT services that take you through the art of how to reference, what to reference, and navigating departmental styles with confidence.
During the Focus Week we will also be promoting our online support: discover our online referencing style guides, access comprehensive support wherever you are, and explore quick tips, quizzes, and interactive discussions on our social channels.
Don't let referencing stress hold you back. Save the dates, tell your friends, and get ready to ace your references. We're here to support you.
