Harvard

About Harvard referencing

Harvard is a generic name used to describe the author-date approach to referencing, rather than a specific referencing style in its own right. 

Manuals and resources

There is no official Harvard manual.  We recommend:

• Style manual for authors, editors and printers (6th ed.). (2002). John Wiley & Sons.

• University of Sydney Guide to Harvard Referencing Style

• General information on academic referencing, including why it is essential.
