A. Footnoting Referencing StyleExplanation
The AGLC, or the Australian Guide to Legal Citation, is a referencing style that uses footnotes for citations. In this style, the sources are cited in footnotes at the bottom of each page or at the end of the document. This allows for easy access to the sources while reading the text. Unlike author/date referencing styles, which typically use in-text citations, the AGLC uses footnotes to provide detailed information about the sources used in the text.Rate this question:
