Citing different types of work

[Anonymous Student]

Do I need to make a distinction between different types of work (e.g., a scientific paper vs. a fictional novel) when citing them?

The rules on this can vary with different publishers. For the Speech Synthesis report, all types of work should be cited in the same way and appear in the single list of references at the end of the report.

Some publishers require a distinction between peer-reviewed and non-reviewed work, with the latter only appearing as footnotes so that the list of references contains exclusively peer-reviewed work. However, given the importance of non-reviewed pre-prints (notably on arXiv) in our field, this distinction is rarely made by authors.
