Principles Involve in Oxford Bibliography Style

• Oxford citation style is created for Legal
  Authorities by the Oxford University. If you are
  a law student, you must learn everything about
  this citation style since you will have to cite
  all your paper using this particular citation
  style.
• Creating oxford bibliography is not an easy task,
  especially if you are not aware of the principles
  of this particular citation style. But before
  getting into the principle, you must get to know
  the three elements- in-text citation, footnotes
  and bibliography.

  comma

  footnote, separate the two citations using a
  semi-colon

  sentence. If you need clarity, you can add
  directly to the relevant word or phrase.
• ?Footnotes are given only when the source is
  cited for the first time.
• ?The footnote will provide information about the
  author, title and publication.

  number n footnotes will be useful as the readers
  will easily locate the specific passage in the
  content.

• ?Keep the name of the authors exactly how it
  appears in the publication.
• ?In case there are more than 3 authors add the
  name of the first author, followed by and
