Updated 9-Dec-14 Page 1 Harvard Referencing Style Please check the guide provided by your School, Department, or lecturer, as it may vary from these guidelines About the Harvard Referencing Style Harvard style is an author-date referencing system. There are many varieties of Harvard referencing system. This guide follows the standards described in the Style Manual for Authors, Editors and Printers 6th edition, often referred to as the "AGPS Manual" as it was formerly published by the Australian Government Publishing Services. It is also referred to as the "Snooks manual", because the 6th edition was revised by Snooks and Co. This manual is available in the Library at 808.027 STYL. You can access the online version of this guide at http://libguides.scu.edu.au/harvard. General Guidelines There are two basic components to Harvard referencing system: 1. In-text citations: Harvard style requires the use of a partial reference to the sources you are referring to in the text of your document. The in-text citation appears in the format of author-date or name-date enclosed in brackets e.g. (Smith 2008); (PriceWaterhouse Coopers 2005). 2. List of References: a list of references is placed at the end of the document. It should include the full bibliographic details of all the references you have cited in the document - except personal communications - in alphabetical order by author names. It is important that the in-text citation is in agreement with the relevant entry in the reference list. Citing in text The Harvard style uses the author date method in the text. Insert the surname of the author followed by the year of publication (and specific page number(s) if necessary) at the appropriate point in the text. When including page numbers, use p. for a single page and pp. for a range of consecutive pages. Note there is no comma between the name and the year, but a comma is required after the date if a page number is added, e.g. (Smith 2013, p.10). The textual citation may appear at the end of a sentence before the full stop. Examples: By the middle of this century, emerging markets will be nearly twice as large as the current developed economies (Van Agtmael 2007). By the middle of this century, emerging markets will be nearly twice as large as the current developed economies (Van Agtmael 2007, p.12). Alternatively, the author’s name may be integrated into the sentence, followed by the year of publication (and page number(s) if necessary). Examples: Robertson and Pitel (2011) predict an average growth of 5% for the continent for 2011 … Robertson and Pitel (2011, p. 12) predict an average growth of 5% for the continent for 2011 … How to cite summaries or paraphrases When referring to the overall content of a work, or putting information in your own words by summarising or paraphrasing, you must cite the original author or researcher and the date of publication, e.g. (Smith 1998).

Updated 9-Dec-14 Page 2 page number may be included if you paraphrase a passage, summarise an idea from a particular page or you want to direct the reader to a specific page, e.g. (Smith 1998, p.23). Page numbers may also be included if you are referring to a long work and the page number(s) might be useful to the reader. If the name of the author forms part of the sentence, include only the date (and page number if necessary) in the brackets. e.g. Smith (1998); Smith (1998, p.8). How to cite a direct quote When incorporating a direct quotation into a sentence, citing the source and page numbers are essential in text. Fit quotations within your sentences, enclosed in quotation marks, making sure the sentences are grammatically correct. For example: Issues surround the imitation of real world buildings as whilst they “serve the important function of grounding users’ expectations and providing affordances for them to effectively move through space, they can also be limiting” (Ball & Bainbridge 2008, p. 118). If a quotation is 30 words or more, omit quotation marks and use a block format in which the quotation is indented 5 spaces from the left margin and it is single-spaced with the in-text citation at the bottom right. How to cite sources with no author or authoring body When the name of an author or authoring body is not shown, cite the reference by its title and the year. Use the first few words if the title is too long. For example: This was apparently not the case before about 1995 (The entrepreneur's guide to the law 1999). How to cite works with different numbers of authors When a work has 2 or 3 authors, cite all the names in the order in which they appear in the reference. Examples: (Graham & Bennet 1995) (Malinowski, Miller & Guota 1995) If you integrate the authors names into the sentence, use ‘and’ instead of the ampersand. Examples: Graham and Bennet (1995) found that … Malinowski, Miller and Guota (1995) reported the same effects … When a work has more than 3 authors, cite only the name of the first-listed author, followed by et al., every time the reference occurs in the text. Examples: (Perry et al. 2000) Perry et al. (2000) found that …... Harvard LibGuide– visit http://libguides.scu.edu.au/harvard for online version. Updated 9-Dec-14 Page 3 How to cite a work if no dates are available If the publication date of a resource is unknown or unsure, cite it using n.d. (no date), e.g. (Smith n.d.) or Smith (n.d.). If the publication date can be established with some degree of accuracy, use the abbreviation 'c' (circa-about), e.g. (Smith c.1943) or Smith (c.1943). If the publication date is dubious, use a question mark after the date, e.g. (Smith 1943?) or Smith (1943?). Other examples with unsure dates include: a work that secured a publisher but not yet in the process of publication, e.g. (Smith forthcoming); a work that is in the process of publication but the publication date is uncertain, e. (Smith in press). How to cite multiple references If you are referring to more than one reference, place them in alphabetical order, e.g. (Abel 1999; Baker 1990). If you cite more than one reference from the same author, place them in chronological order, e.g. (Smith 2000, 2001). For multiple citations in the same year by the same author, use a, b, c ... immediately following the year of publication, e.g. (Fox 1997a, 1997b). The Reference List The Reference list should identify an item (e.g. book, journal article, DVD, report, web document etc.) in enough details so that others can locate and consult it. The elements required for a Reference List are outlined below: · The Reference list usually appears at the end of the document. · It is headed by the centred title References. · References cited in text must appear in the Reference list and vice versa. The only exceptions to this rule are personal communications and classical works; they are cited in text only and are not included in the Reference list. · Use only the initial(s) of the author’s given name, not the full name. · If the Reference list includes 2 or more entries by the same author(s), list them in chronological order with the earliest first. · Arrange Reference entries in one alphabetical sequence by the surname of the first author or organisation name, or by the first word of the title if there is no author. Ignore the words A, An, and The when alphabetising by title. · Capitalisation: In titles and subtitles of journal and newspaper articles, books, book chapters, films, and unpublished material (theses), capitalise only the first letter of the first word and proper nouns. All major words in the names of journals, magazines and newspapers should be capitalised. · Italicise book titles, journal names and website titles.
