Are there any references vs Is there any reference

These are both acceptable phrases, but they would be used in dissimilar contexts. 'Are there any references' is used when asking about multiple references, while 'Is there any reference' is used when asking about a single reference. It's important to match the verb 'are' or 'is' with the plural or singular form of the noun 'references' or 'reference'.
