Oxford (or footnote) system of referencing

Always include information about where your ideas have come from:

• In the assignment itself (using a consecutive numbering system).

• In detail in a footnote or endnote.

• In a bibliography or a reference list.

How sources are cited within your assignment and in the footnotes or endnotes will depend on:

• Whether or not this is the first time that this source has been cited.

• How many sources have been cited previously.

Tip: Record the details of your sources as you are taking notes.
