64a Appendix 1 Systems of referencing Preferred styles of referencing differ both between universities and between departments withn universities. Even styles that are in wide use such as ‘Harvard’ vary in how they are used in practice by ditterent institutions, When this is combined withthe reality that some lecturers apply an adopted style strictly, whilst others are more lenient, it empha: sises the need for you to use the precise siyle prescribed In your assessment criteria, Within business and management, 1wo author-date referencing systems predominate the Harvard style and the American Psychological Association (APA) style, both of which are author-date systems.
