References/Bibliography
Vancouver Style
• A list of references contains details only of those works cited in the text.
• A bibliography lists sources not cited in the text but which are relevant to
the subject and were used for background reading. • Before you compile your bibliography/reference list check with your
lecturer/tutor for the bibliographic style preferred by the Academic
Department.
• A citation is an acknowledgement in your text of references that support your work. It is in the form of a number that correlates with a source in your reference list. • There are many ways of setting out bibliographies and reference lists. The following are examples of one style – the Vancouver System. It is commonly used in medical and
scientific journals.
• Your reference list should identify references cited (eg. book, journal article, pamphlet,
internet site, cassette tape or film) in sufficient detail so that others may locate and consult your references. • Your reference list should appear at the end of your essay/report with the entries listed
numerically and in the same order that they have been cited in the text. • If you have cited sources from the Internet, these should be in your reference list. • The bibliography is a separate list from the reference list and should be arranged
alphabetically by author or title (where no author is given) in the Vancouver Style.
Punctuation marks and spaces in the reference list and citations are very important. Follow
the punctuation and spacing exactly in the examples given.
„ INDICATING REFERENCES IN THE TEXT OF YOUR ESSAY

** It is important to BE CONSISTENT when you are referencing. **
In the Vancouver Style, citations within the text of your essay/paper are identified by
Arabic numbers in round brackets. This applies to references in text, tables and
figures. e.g. (2) – this is the style used by the referencing software Endnote.

• The identification of references within the text of your essay/paper may vary according to
the preferred style of the journal or the preferred style of the department or lecturer. For
example superscript may be preferred when referencing.
• The Vancouver System assigns a number to each reference as it is cited. A number must be used even if the author(s) is named in the sentence/text. Example: Smith (10) has argued that….
• The original number assigned to the reference is reused each time the reference is cited
in the text, regardless of its previous position in the text. L:\ClientServices\LearningSkills\InformationSkills\HowToGuides\Citation Styles\Vancouver\vancouver.doc June 2005
• When multiple references are cited at a given place in the text, use a hyphen to join the
first and last numbers that are inclusive. Use commas (without spaces) to separate non-
inclusive
numbers in a multiple citation eg. 2,3,4,5,7,10 is abbreviated to (2-5,7,10) Do not
use a hyphen if there are no citation numbers in between that support your statement eg. 1-
2.
• The placement of citation numbers within text should be carefully considered, for example a particular reference may be relevant to only part of a sentence. As a general rule, reference numbers should be placed outside full stops and commas, inside colons and semicolons; however, this may vary according to the requirements of a particular journal. Examples:
There have been efforts to replace mouse inoculation testing with invitro tests, such as enzyme linked immunosorbent assays (57,60) or polymerase chain reaction, (20-22) but these remain experimental. Moir and Jessel maintain “that the sexes are interchangeable”. (1)
„ CITING A BOOK
The essential details required are (in order): Name/s of author/s, editor/s, compiler/s or the institution responsible.

al” (et al means “and others). • Put a comma and 1 space between each name. The last author must have a full-stop after their initial(s). Format: surname (1 space) initial/s (no spaces or punctuation between initials)
(full-stop OR if further names comma, 1 space)
Example 1.1: Smith AK, Jones BC, editors.
