Referencing competency is the capability to effectively and efficiently managing sources of literature that enable forward and backward searching of the articles. Referencing competency enable easier access to the literature, ensure the integrity of publication and fostering academic discussion on a higher level. Nowadays, many tools, style, and technique has been developed for managing references, especially in dealing with the vast number of digital resources. However, since technologies on referencing change over time, thus there is always a need to revisit the surface of the user’s preferences in dealing with reference sources. A quantitative research methodology was adopted, and findings were analysed based on descriptive using Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 26.
