Only sources referred to by citations in the text are put in the reference list. To ensure clarity, sources are grouped into either research artefacts (e.g., archives, interviews, recordings) or research literature. In some cases it might be that you only have a literature list. Texts in which it is not clear who the original author is can be listed according to the name and date of the publication.
If the reference list needs to be broken up into smaller categories, these will be according to the type of source material (e.g., archival, newspapers and/or periodicals, audio, interview). Archival sources will categorized under the Archival Sources category according to the names of the archives. If necessary, archives may be referred to in the main text using abbreviations, but then the abbreviations must be clarified in the reference list. If the source is not commercially available, then the reference list must indicate where it can nevertheless be found.
In the list of references, italics are used for the titles of books, newspapers, and periodicals (for example). The titles of research articles cited in the reference list, however, are not italicised – only the title of the journal or book in which they appear. (See example below).
Research material
In addition to previous research, theses often include material that has been self-produced, e.g., a process description, portfolio, notes, interviews, a diary, a musical composition, or cultural items. This should be listed in the references as “research material”, and the material units can be added as an appendix when deemed necessary.
One example of how the reference list can be constructed:

Literature
Literature is listed in alphabetically by the authors last name. The location of the publishing house should be mentioned (but not where the source was printed). If several locations are mentioned in relation to the publisher, it is the first one that needs to be mentioned; the others can be ignored. If you are referring to a text originally published much earlier than the version you are using, then it is good to include the original year of publication in square brackets after the year of the version you have used. If there is a translator, they should be mentioned between the title of the publication and the publishing house location.

Internet Sources
With sources from the internet, the principle is the same as for books and articles. The URL-address is added after the publication’s title, and it can be left as a hyperlink (blue font underlined).
The date the page was retrieved and read is marked by a date in brackets at the end: (read dd.mm.yyyy). For in-text citations, the whole url need not be written, just the name of the author and year it appeared online; or name of the website or its headline. These details will also feature in the reference list (for example, Scott 1997; Cheek 2015).
Scott, Derek B. 1997. Orientalism and Musical Style. Critical Musicology http://www.leeds.ac.uk/music/Info/critmus/articles/1997/02/01.html (read 22.10.2003).
Cheek (2015) “Alpha Omega Tour 2016” http://www.liigamusic.com/#tour (read 10.10.2015).
NB! Internet sources are not to be listed in their own category, but placed with either research materials or research literature. For instance, with the two examples above, Scott would be put under literature, while Cheek would be under materials.
