Why can’t we check references for you? 

Although the Library Learning Support and Engagement Team are there to support you with your referencing, we will NOT do your referencing for you.  This includes checking whether your referencing is ‘correct’ or to giving you the ‘right’ reference for a source you have found. 

This is because marks are often awarded for correct referencing in university work.  If we check your references or provide you with references, that could be deemed an academic offence. 

However, Library Learning Support and Engagement will always try and give you as much support and advice as we are able.
