School of English and Drama - Citation Online Tutorial (COLT)
Citation On-Line Tutorial (COLT)
- Teach yourself about citations: footnotes, endnotes and bibliography
- A guide for students of the humanities
Effective citation and referencing is an essential skill for all academic writing. Citations, whether in the form of footnotes printed at the foot of each page or endnotes printed at the end of your work, should allow the reader to check easily the source of quotations and evidence that you cite. This web tutorial will teach you about what information should appear in your footnotes and bibliographies, and how this information should be presented according to an approved citation style guide, the MHRA (Modern Humanities Research Association) Style Guide.
This tutorial has been developed by the School of English and Drama, Queen Mary, University of London. Initial development of COLT was conducted by Giles Bergel and Markman Ellis, aided by a Queen Mary e-Learning Fellowship. A subsequent grant from the Westfield Fund for Enhancing the Student Experience has enabled Rob Ellis to revise and improve the tutorial and website.
