Oxford Reference


Oxford Reference is an online reference collection subscribed by the Library. It provides access to 100 key Oxford Dictionaries, Companions, and Encyclopedias in various areas including language, science, medicine, humanities, social sciences, business, and management.

It provides tips on how you can cite the information in different citation styles, and allows exporting the references to EndNote or other reference management tools.
