References (and citations) are formatted according to particular styles◦ A Referencing Guide gives details of format
Accurate references allow your reader to find those sources
Referencing your information sources is arequirement of the University of Canberra◦ Academic Integrity Policy:https://guard.canberra.edu.au/policy/policy.php?pol_id=3175
