Library Search

Referencing and assignment Writing

New students often type questions into Library Search asking how to reference, how to find the APA Guide or other reference guides, and how to write their assignments. Although Library Search can do many things, it cannot help you with these questions.

You can always contact the Library for assistance, but did you know there are other places within the University that will help you with your research and assignment writing?  Here are some quick links to the areas of support offered by the Academic Learning Support Centre, Student Life, Studiosity and other sections within CQUniversity.

 

Need help writing an assignment, a report or a reflection, referencing or preparing for an exam? Contact ALC (Academic Learning Centre)                                     Where do I go to do an online ALC course on assignment writing?
Where do I to find the APA or other referencing guides? How do I do referencing? Help me to study, get motivated and organised.
I need to book some time with a librarian to talk about my research. I want someone to look at my assignment online and help me improve the content and my style of writing, what is Studiosity and how can it help?

 

Did you know that you can use the citation assistant in Library Search when referencing assignments? This is an automated service so you will need to check that the details are correct using your reference notes. Still, it is a great tool for citing books or articles. Click on Citation, select your referencing style, then copy the formatted reference.
