Footnotes, Endnotes or Oxford style.

Notes
•
Note referencing uses a different order to other styles – put authors' initials before their surnames and put the year
of publication at the end.
Numbering
• Use Microsoft Word to insert a new superscript number each time you cite ideas from any source by clicking on
'Insert Footnote' or 'Insert Endnote' (on the 'References' tab (or ribbon) in Word 2007).
1
1
• Put superscript numbers after punctuation at the end of sentences (. ), but before other punctuation marks ( ,).
First and subsequent citations
• After the first citation, footnotes can be shortened – provide just enough detail to be unambiguous, e.g. the second
citation to Ziino (see 12) could be:
45. Ziino, p. 130.
• The first time you cite a book chapter or journal article, you must include page numbers
for the whole chapter or article and cannot include a page number for one specific idea
in the source (see 12 above). After the first citation, you should include a page number
for the specific idea if possible (see 45 above).
Place of publication
• Book or report with many places of publication – choose the first.
• Book or report with no place of publication – write n.p.
Date
• Source with no date – write n.d.
Editions
• Book with several editions – write the number of the edition you have used (see 19 above). NB This is not the
same as the printing or reprinting date.
Explanations
• Footnotes can include explanations (in addition to referencing details), e.g.
46. There is extensive literature on this topic emphasising the two distinct viewpoints. See for example Maurois,
p. 73, and Ziino, p. 14.
Multiple and secondary sources
• If two sources are cited at the same point in-text, use only one number and put details for both sources in the
matching note, e.g.
47. Palmer & Devitt; Warner, p. 54.
• For secondary sources, notes start with the family name of the originator of the idea, followed by 'cited in' and
the details of the source you actually read, e.g.
48. Todman, cited in Ziino, p. 125.
When a bibliography is required
• Use the heading 'Bibliography' and repeat the full details of each source with three changes – do not number
the sources, put the sources in alphabetical order, and put the family name of the first author before his/her
initial, e.g.
Doyle, T & D McEachern, Environment and Politics, 3rd edn, Routledge, Milton Park, Oxfordshire, 2008.
• Do not include details of the Bible, lectures in which you take your own notes, personal communication, or
poems.
Examples in this guide are based on:
Style manual: for authors, editors and printers, 5th edn, rev. Snooks & Co, John Wiley & Sons Australia, Stafford,
Queensland, 2002.
