Are you studying a law subject for the first time? This is a great introductory resource on our citation style - the AGLC4 - by Jessica Davis, a Teaching and Liaison Librarian at the University of Newcastle. @uonlib @uonlawschool @AGLCTweets youtu.be/5L_3NP0C4fA

👏I was fortunate to be alerted to the need for non-gendered language in my law studies, and am glad that the Aust Guide to Legal Citation (@AGLCTweets) requires it for our students. Still a long way to go though, including in construction law discourse. theage.com.au/national/victo…

AGLCTweets turns 8 today! Thank you to all of you who send us your queries (and concerns) with the AGLC. Keep them coming!! 🥳 To celebrate turning 8, let us know your favourite rule! #auslaw
As we enter into the exam period, responses may be delayed.
Remember: if you have uncertainty about a source/rule, usually the best place to start is previous issues of the Review, to see whether/how the source has been cited before.
Good luck to those sitting exams!

Sun is shining, assignment are due, and textual propositions remain unsourced. Hit me with the trickiest AGLC questions you have for your essays/articles/tweets!
We hope they are (and are sure they will be) AGLC-compliant!
We have updated our list of forthcoming articles for volume 44(2) of the Review!

Responses may be delayed during the exam period.
If I don't respond in time, here is my approach to tackling the grey areas of the AGLC:
1. Aim for internal consistency and clarity
2. Make the source accessible for your reader
3. Refer to past issues of the Review for guidance
Don't worry if your citations aren't perfect — we don't get it right all the time either

Top tip: if you want to find a previous citation of a source in the Review, try using the @austlii search function on the Review’s page!
Keep in mind the switch to AGLC4 was finalised for volume 42, so use older issues with care.
