Research Writing - APA Referencing
by Dp Tripathi 28 Jan '19

28 Jan '19

Dear Friends, In the process of writing research proposals or scholarly publications, the referencing (citation) is very important. Through citations, the author gets credited for his/her noble work whose research result we are citing in our publication. But, how to write citation and prepare the list of references? There are many citation styles such as IEEE, Chicago, APA etc, and all of them provide some format through which we arrange the list and also cite in text. This video is about the same and can be viewed at https://youtu.be/bf1bnOOS0XU By watching this video, one will be able to understand the process of writing citation and prepare the reference list with ease. Please suggest the changes for improvement in the content and feel free to write at librarianguide(a)gmail.com Source: www.apastyle.org Thanks DP Tripathi -- ********************************* *Dhanwantari Prakash Tripathi* MA (ECO), MLISc, HDISM, ECDL ********************************* Assistant Librarian, Periodicals Biju Patnaik Central Library National Institute of Technology Rourkela, Odisha –769008 INDIA ********************************* *YouTube - Librarian Guide <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqq2XkD5KKp5W7VrMJOsGhw>* ********************************* *M - +91-8895296796* *U - www.dptripathi.in <http://www.dptripathi.in> * ********************************* -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
