Required textbooks for many Bexley North courses are now available for purchase by Booth College students in our online bookstore. More details are available on the Textbook Information page and in the Bookstore. Full details of all required texts are made available prior to the beginning of each semester.
The following resources are provided for the reference of Bexley North students:
Footnoting and Referencing
In the past we have given students the option to use two referencing systems. From 2012 the ONLY referencing system in use at Booth College will be Chicago 16th (with footnoting).
For details on referencing with this method, please refer to this website: http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org This website provides a "Quick Guide" which covers most of the frequently used sources (Books, Journals, Websites etc). Please feel free to ask your lecturer for help if you have any difficulty as you adjust to the exclusive use of Chicago 16th this year.
Guidelines and Help for Assignments
The number of sources referred to in your essays (and listed in your bibliography) should be at least
and may include books, journals, articles, dialogues and (academic) web sources.
Assignment Templates
All students are reminded that ALL assignments must now be submitted electronically, with the appropriate Assignment Coversheet as the first page of the assignment (not as a separate document). A template is available on the Student Resources page.
Assignments should be emailed to assessments@boothcollege.edu.au

To assist students in monitoring their studies you have access to a Student Portal within the web-based database we use (called eMinerva) http://scd.eminervacommunity.com/
Using the web-portal you are able to log in and access information regarding subjects you are enrolled in or have completed and your results. You are also able to update your student details ie. address, phone, email etc.
Students are reminded that ALL marks recorded in eMinerva are PROVISIONAL until after moderation
at the conclusion of each semester.
You are required to REGISTER as a user to access the Portal...
