At St. Peter's Catholic College, we use the APA style guide for referencing.
How to use the Referencing tool in microsoft Word
Add a new citation and source to a document
On the References tab, in the Citations & Bibliography group, click the arrow next to Style and click APA styles for citations and sources.
Click at the end of the sentence or phrase that you want to cite.
On the Reference tab, click Insert Citation and then do one of the following:
To add the source information, click Add New Source, and then, in the Create Source dialog box, click the arrow next to Type of Source, and select the type of source you want to use (for example, a book section or a website).
To add a placeholder, so that you can create a citation and fill in the source information later, click Add New Placeholder. A question mark appears next to placeholder sources in Source Manager.
If you chose to add a source, enter the details for the source. To add more information about a source, click the Show All Bibliography Fields check box.
Click OK when finished. The source is added as a citation at the place you selected in your document.
When you've completed these steps, the citation is added to the list of available citations. The next time you quote this reference, you don't have to type it all out again. You just add the citation to your document. After you've added a source, you may find you need to make changes to it at a later time. To do this, see Edit a source.
