Bibliography

Research integrity requires that you reference your quotations. Citing without referencing is a violation of
academic integrity and will not be tolerated.

With regard to the format of referencing, students are recommended to use APA format (
http://www.library.cornell.edu/newhelp/res_strategy/citing/apa.html#apa ) or other established bibliography
formats you are familiar with.

If you have higher versions of MS Word (e.g., in Office 2007), you may be able to insert footnotes and
endnotes automatically.

If you do not have any of the above resources, you may adopt an endnote bibliography format that is easy
to follow: reference with numbers in the text body and insert the references in the endnote. For example:

Research integrity [1] requires that you reference your quotations. Citing without referencing [2] is a violation of academic
integrity [3] and will not be tolerated [4] in this class.

Use the same number for the same reference source. For example:

Academic integrity [3] is the top priority of the Business School…
