Citing and Referencing (UWI STA): Style Manuals

The following list has been excerpted (and modified) from The UWI Thesis Guide (2015). For the full list, do visit here.

The list includes links to: 1) various online Research Guides/handouts (UWI STA Campus Libraries) which provide guidance on the styles or 2) the manuals.

If you are unsure which referencing style you should use (i.e. when a Faculty has more than one recommended style manual), kindly check with your Lecturer/Academic Supervisor.

For assistance on citing and referencing, please Ask A Librarian.
