Referencing art (see also images)

Updated for APA 7th edition

Senior School referencing | Art: Introduction

In-text references (citations) and Reference lists (Bibliography) help you avoid plagiarism. When referencing the School uses APA 7th edition. APA is one of the more widely used referencing guidelines.

Use APA CiteMaker to build your references lists (bibliographies) as well as your in-text references (citations).

Referencing is a key part of the School's Academic Integrity policies and procedures. Copyright refers to who owns the work (text, images, data, etc.) you are using. Copyright and Creative Common licenses tell you if you have permission to use the other person's work and ideas.

NOTE: Use the following guidelines when citing and referencing images of art. The way you cite and reference art depends on whether you need to provide attribution.
