References by format

The UWA Library has created examples for the most commonly used source types in the medical discipline. It is important to ascertain the source type of the information you are citing so that you can format the identifying details correctly - a journal article will be formatted differently to a book or a webpage, for example. 

For further examples and more source types, refer to Citing Medicine, 2nd edition - The NLM Style Guide for Authors, Editors, and Publishers.
