Referencing
An essential element of your research activities will relate to successfully managing references to the sources, both primary and secondary, that you already have or will need to consult. Developing a systematic approach to this will save you time
and heartache when you are writing up.
- EndNote: reference management software for assisting with studying, research and creating bibliographies
- Citation guides: including British Standard and Harvard
EndNote, a type of reference management service, is an invaluable aid for researchers. It enables you to store and organise all your references, import references from electronic resources and create in-text citations and formatted bibliographies
in your written work. For information about EndNote, including training details, see
Endnote.
Using other libraries
You will be able to use, for reference purposes, the University of Oxford’s Bodleian and dependent libraries. For more information, see
Access to other libraries.
The SCONUL Access scheme gives borrowing facilities to research students in many UK higher education libraries. For further details, see
SCONUL Access.
Open Access publishing
The Library supports open access publishing by making research outputs, research data, open educational resources (OER) publicly available via the
Research Archive and Digital Asset Repository (RADAR), the University’s Institutional Repository.
You can add your research publications using the CRIS (Current Research Information System). For more information, contact
openaccess@brookes.ac.uk
