How to Use Reference tab in MS-Word

Welcome to Lesson-13 of MS Word software application.

References Tab
This tab gives you access to all the commands for creating references within your documents.
While Microsoft Word is an easy-to-use application, you may find certain Word features to be intimidating. For students, writers, and academics, the References tab is a must-have feature. But if you have never used it or do not use it often, it can be scary.
Microsoft Word has a simple built-in reference function in the References tab. Here you can manually enter references and refer to them in the text and create a bibliography in the most common styles (APA, Harvard, MLA, etc.). This built-in function is good if you have a limited number of references and you do not need to have access to your references on different computers.
