Referencing at Newman

RefWorks is an advanced online tool which will help you to manage your references. You can use it to:

• create reference lists and reference list entries in Newman Harvard, OSCOLA and APA styles
• store and organise the sources you use in your assignments
• read, take notes and manage your reading and sources

We recommend RefWorks to students at level 6 (3rd year undergraduates) and above who have a good understanding of our referencing style.
