| | Reference - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A reference may also be a text (not necessarily a reference text) that has been used in the creation of a piece of work such as an essay, report, or oration. | | | Conversely, selected reference works may be shelved with other circulating books, and may be loaned out. | | | In a library, the word reference may refer to a dictionary, encyclopedia, or other reference work that contains many brief articles that cover a broad scope of knowledge in one book, or a set of books. |

| | Often a citation will refer to a specific manifestation only because the citer, working from his own copy of the article, is unaware of other manifestations that would do as well. | | | The distinctions between work, expression, and manifestation are a matter for judgment. | | | Each work has a unique identifier and one or more copies, each with its own URL. |

| | Thus, any centripetal force, such as the sun's gravitational pull on the earth, does no work because it acts at right angles to the motion and has no component in that direction (see centripetal force and centrifugal force). | | | Thus when a 5-lb (22.4-newton) force pulls a body 10 ft (3 m), it does 50 foot-pounds (67.2 meter-newtons) of work. | | | Even if the body is in motion, the force must have a component in the direction of motion. |

| | In libraries, the most recent edition of most reference works may not be taken out of the building, or even out of the reference area of the building, although duplicate copies or earlier editions may be allowed to be borrowed. | | | Most are updated as needed, typically with a new edition each year. | | | The writing style used in these works is informative; the authors avoid use of the first person, and emphasize facts. |
