Which referencing system should I be using for Law?

The BPP University Referencing Guidance (see below) should be used by most new Law programmes for professional communications.

Students on other Law programmes may be asked to use other referencing systems (such as OSCOLA) for academic submissions.

This link take you to the full OSCOLA guide, an abbreviated version is available on our Online Library law pages. Additional FAQs relating to OSCOLA can be found here, and a video explaining how to use Zotero to manage your OSCOLA references. 

Further information about referencing will be provided to students for their different assignments - always refer to your briefing information. 

For general information on referencing for all schools (including referencing tools if appropriate to use) can be found on our Study Support pages under Writing Skills.
