Notes
- Vancouver is a numbered system. All sources appearing in the reference list are listed in the order that they are first cited in the text (not alphabetically).
- The reference list is a numbered list and should be single spaced with one line space between each entry.
- Only the author's initials are included regardless of the presentation of the author's name in the source document. Use no more than two initials.
- The citations here use round brackets, but square brackets, [1], or superscript¹ may also be used.
- The citation numbers are static. The same number should be used for the same source each time it is cited.
- Capitalise the first letter of the first word of the title only. The first word of the subtitle is not capitalised.
- In the In-text citation, the image number is the number in your assessment, not the number in the original document.
- For multiple authors, check the author layout table for in-text and Reference List format.
