1.12 Book On An eReader
(Martin 2003)
(Martin 2003, p. 83/10893)
Most eReaders can resize pages, which changes the
numbering and makes quoting from a book on an eReader
tricky. However, the bottom of each page should show both
the page number and the total number of pages (sometimes
called locations). Use the ratio of these two numbers e.g.
(Martin 2003, p. 83/10893) for quotes. Use p. even if the
reader uses locations.
Martin, G.R.R. 2003, Game of thrones, electronic book, Harper Voyager, London.
When an electronic book is on an eReader, such as Kindle, reference it
similarly to a print book (see the Martin example above) with the words
‘electronic book’ directly after the title. Get the book’s citation details from
the page after the title page, or by using the ‘Copyright’ link in the table of
contents, or from the site from which you downloaded the book. You don’t
need to put the place of publication if this is not clear. Do not put a URL or
the type of reader.

A work is unpublished if it was produced in a very limited number of copies
and has never been available commercially. The most common examples are
theses and unpublished conference papers. Manuscripts and diaries are unpublished works. With these, add details about where the works are located.
The main difference with referencing unpublished works is that the main title
is not in italics but instead is enclosed in single quotes.

4.21 Dictionaries & Encyclopedias
Paper dictionary: Macquarie dictionary defnes spruik as ‘to
harangue or address a meeting’ (Macquarie Dictionary 2012).
Online dictionary: Collins dictionary defnes the action to wimple
as ‘to cover with or put a wimple on’ (Collins Dictionary 2012).
Paper Encyclopedia: Lemons are described as ‘yellowy soury
things that grow on trees’ (Wiseman’s Encyclopedia 2010, p. 767).
Online Encyclopedia: Oranges are described as ‘round tangy
things that grow on trees’ (Acumen Encyclopedia 2007).
Dictionaries and Encyclopedias are referenced like a book
with no author. If in print (or if online but the same as the
print) you only need an in-text reference for a dictionary
reference. You don’t need to put print dictionaries in your
reference list.
If quoting from an encyclopedia, use page numbers if in
print; if online use the method for quoting from an online
book. You don’t need to put page numbers if quoting from
a dictionary (because it’s obvious where the quote comes
from).
For an online-only dictionary or encyclopedia, because you need to include
information about the web address, reference like an online book with no
author, and include in your reference list. The web address should be the
main website address, not the address of the particular entry you looked up
(see examples above). As with an online book, if the place of publication is
not given you can leave it out.

When you cite a reference in the
text of your document, use the
author surname and the year of
publication. This is called an intext reference. For example:
> The theory was frst propounded in 1970 (Larsen
1971).
> If there are 4 or more authors, list the frst author
and abbreviate with et al.
> If the author name is already in the text immediately
in front of the in-text reference, you can use just the
year. e.g.: Larsen (1971) was the frst to propound the
theory.
> If you have a group of references cited together in
the text, they should be ordered alphabetically by
frst author surname: e.g. (Hawking & Weinberg 2009;
Larsen 1971; Smith 1997).
> If you have no date for a reference, use n.d. (for ‘no
date’) instead of the year. If you only have an
approximate date, put c. (for ‘circa’, meaning around) in
front of the year: e.g. (White n.d.) and (Beethoven c. 1813).
> All in-text references must be included in a single
list of full references at the end of your document.
The exception to this rule is personal communication
> This list must be arranged alphabetically by author
surname or by title in the absence of an author. It
should begin on a new page, and can be either single
or double spaced. If single spaced, when a reference
is more than one line long the extra lines are indented
by a tab space (this is called a ‘hanging indent’). The
preference for single or double spacing varies across
faculties so you should consult your lecturer or faculty
assignment writing guide about this.
> If your author’s name has ‘Junior’ or ‘Senior’, eg W. Strunk
Jr, cite with just the surname in the text, eg: (Strunk &
White 1979). In your reference list place Jr or Sr after the
fnal initial of the author’s frst names, eg: Strunk W. Jr &
White E.B. 1979, The elements of style, 3rd edn, Macmillan,
New York.

It has been suggested that ‘the taxation advantage enjoyed by superannuation funds, relative to private investment in shares, was somewhat neutralised
in 1988’ (McGrath & Viney 1997, p. 137).
We see evidence of this in Ulysses:
Mr Bloom stood far back, his hat in his hand, counting the bared heads. Twelve. I’m thirteen. No.
The chap in the macintosh is thirteen. Death’s number. Where the deuce did he pop out of? He wasn’t
in the chapel, that I’ll swear. Silly superstition that about thirteen. (Joyce 1992, p. 139)
If you are merely summarising or paraphrasing, rather than directly quoting, then you do not need to give page numbers. However
you can if you wish, and it is strongly recommended that you do so if the work you are referencing has a large number of pages.
If you are using a short quote
use single quotation marks and
your in-text reference must give
the page number(s) where the
quote comes from. Use p. for a
single page or pp. for several
pages. For example:
When making a direct quote
of more than about thirty words
do not use quotation marks but

‘A number of revenue initiatives have been released since the Government came to offce, with an estimated impact of $8.9 billion over the forward
estimates period’ (Department of Finance 2009, para. 5).
In the Summer Collections section of the Fashion Report for 2013, it was predicted that ‘red would be the colour for 2014’ (Style Daily 2013, para. 16).
If you are sourcing a quotation
from a website, you will not be
able to quote a page number,
so instead use the paragraph
number, abbreviated with the
term ‘para.’
If the webpage is particularly
long and unwieldy, describe the
section of the website that contains your quotation in the body
of your writing, and then mention
the paragraph number in the intext citation.

5.4 A Quote From A Work Citing Another Author
Einstein stated in 1906 that ‘time is relative’ (Thorne 2003,
p. 17).
OR Thorne (2003, p. 17) notes that in 1906 Einstein stated that
‘time is relative’.
OR According to Thorne (2003, p. 17) it was Einstein who
stated that ‘time is relative’ in 1906.
OR Einstein (1906, cited in Thorne 2003, p.17) stated that ‘time
is relative’.
OR ‘Time is relative’ according to Einstein (Thorne 2003, p.
17).
OR ‘Time is relative’ (Einstein, cited in Thorn 2003, p. 17).
Sometimes a work you are using discusses a work from another
author. Citing work from another author may occur in PowerPoint
slides, lecture notes, books or journal articles. For example, in a
book by Thorne, written in 1994, on page 78 you find a reference
to a 1906 paper by Albert Einstein. To cite the work by Einstein you
should mention Einstein’s paper in the text and use Thorne as your
in-text reference, with page number.
In your reference list you must have the full reference for Thorne.
If you wish, you may also include the reference for Einstein (you
can get this from Thorne’s bibliography), but this isn’t necessary
because you haven’t actually consulted the Einstein paper directly.

5.7 Corporate authors with very long names
Sometimes the author of a reference can be an organisation with
a long name. This makes in-text referencing diffcult if you need to
reference it often. To deal with this, you may use an abbreviation of
the organisation’s name, if you wish, as follows.
• When you frst mention the organisation in your document you
need to make clear what its abbreviation is. For example (there
are many ways of doing this, you can use any way that makes
it clear): According to the Department of Foreign Affairs and
Trade (DFAT 2006) …
• Thereafter in your document text you can refer to the author
using its abbreviated name (in this case, as DFAT), including in
any in-text references, eg (DFAT 2007).
• In your reference list, you must list all the references as normal
using the full organisational name.
• You also need to put one extra entry into your reference list for
the abbreviation, in the appropriate place alphabetically, indicating what the full name is. This entry is of the form: Abbreviation
– see Full name.
• Note that the abbreviation’s entry does not have a date. Note
also that there might be one or more references in your list that
come between the full names and the abbreviation.
