In Primo, Libris, Google Scholar and most databases you can get help with creating references. There is often a small "button" called "create reference" or "cite". When you click there, the database / system creates the reference for you automatically. You can then copy and paste it into your reference list. How well they fit can vary depending on the system, so you must always adjust them yourself according to the Harvard Guide.

EnNote helps you to collect and organise references, insert text references, and create bibliographies in your paper.

The main reasons why accurate referencing is necessary:
There are different referencing styles. If you are studying Textile- and Fashion Design, you should use the style known as Harvard. Harvard is not a standardised system, which means that different guides have different recommendations. Therefore, it is important that you keep to one certain guide throughout your work. The guide we recommend for Textile- and Fashion Design is York St John University's Harvard Referencing Guide.
