Citing references: Harvard Style

MC May 2022 Citing references: Harvard Style Why reference We get our ideas and information from many different sources, such as books, journals and websites. When we write an assignment, we use relevant information from these sources to help us produce a well-argued answer that is supported by evidence. If we write something in an assignment and we don t say where the idea or argument comes from, we could be accused of plagiarism. This guide will give you brief advice on how to refer to (reference) commonly used sources using the Harvard Style . For a more comprehensive guide, with examples of many other types of reference sources, see this publication: Pears, R. and Shields, G. (2022) Cite them right: the essential referencing guide. 12th edn. London: Palgrave. This book is available to borrow from the campus libraries (at classmark PEA) or to purchase from the CCCU bookshop.

Reference list: Cottrell, S. (2013) The study skills handbook. 4th edn. Basingstoke: Palgrave Macmillan. If the author has published more than one document in the same year, distinguish between them by adding a, b, c etc. after the date and ensure that they are all listed in the bibliography e.g. (Cottrell, 2013a).
