  1. Referencing - Harvard Style A guide… • How to refer to writers in your texts • A formula for each type of resource, i.e. book, journal, video, email, electronic journal, web page • How to create a proper bibliography

  2. Harvard ReferencingWhy you have to use it • Evidence of background reading • Acknowledge the research of others • Avoid accusations of plagiarism • Makes you include complete information • Easy to trace the background research used • Helps other researchers

  3. Harvard ReferencingSome language explained • CITING - acknowledging in the text • CITATION - the passage or words quoted within your text • REFERENCES - list of sources and detailed description of works used

  4. Harvard ReferencingHow does it work? There are 2 elements to referencing other people’s work: • The first is in the body of the text or in the middle of your essay or report, when you refer to someone’s ideas. • The second is at the back of your work when you list everything you have referred to in full.

  5. Citing in the text • Authors surname and year of publication in brackets e.g. The work of Preece (2004) and Rawcliffe (2006) was concerned to emphasise the importance of quality in social research.

  6. Citing in the text Direct Quotes • Name, Year and Page number appear in brackets e.g. “These resting times provide periods for reflection and permit time for new things to be learned, mastered and brought to fruition.” (Jones, 2006: 122)

  7. Citing in the text Multiple Authors • 2 or 1 author/s: e.g. Cutler, T. and Williams, J. (2006) believe that the fermentation process is prolonged by such low temperatures. • 3 or more authors: e.g. Matlock, J. et al. (2004) discussed the use of electronic databases.

  8. Citing in the text Electronic Sources • Electronic journal and web site with an author: Cite the author and date as usual. e.g. Turner (2006) has created many useful graphs showing the transition between the different age groups.

  9. Citing in the text Electronic Sources • Web site without author: Where the web page has no author, use the title of the page as the point of reference. e.g. A recent study (Imperial Cancer Research Fund, 2005) has stated that lung cancer is the most common form of the disease in the UK.

  10. Reference sectionWhat is it? • Alphabetical list at the end of your work • It gives the FULL reference • The following formulas are to make sure that you do not miss out a crucial fact and then fail to trace that work again • Not everything can be included on one guide, the most important thing to remember is to keep your references consistent
