2 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 2 of 10 Topic & Structure of the lesson 1. Why references are needed. 2.Principles of citation 3.The Harvard System (Author-Date Method) oCitation in the Text oBibliography oElectronic Material

3 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 3 of 10 Learning Outcomes At the end of the session, the student will: Appreciate the need for citing references Understand the Harvard Method of referencing. Understand how to cite references to various types of sources from within the text Know how to construct a bibliography Know how to cite references to Electronic Sources of information

4 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 4 of 10 Main Teaching Points 1.The need for referencing 2.The basic principles that govern citation 2.The Harvard System of citation with particular reference to: oCitation within the Text oConstructing a Bibliography oReferencing Electronic Sources of Information

5 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 5 of 10 Why Cite References? To acknowledge the source of a piece of information To enable readers to trace the information for themselves

6 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 6 of 10 Basic Requirement All statements, opinions, conclusions etc. taken from another’s work should be cited, whether the work is directly quoted, paraphrased (restatement) or summarized.

7 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 7 of 10 Principles Information provided should be precise and detailed. It should not allow for ambiguity The style should be consistent throughout References are cited in: –the text of the document –in full at the end of the document

8 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 8 of 10 Harvard System Cited publications are referred to in the text by: Giving the author’s surname and the year of publication (citation in text). If the exact year or date is not known, an approximate date preceded by ‘c.’ (circa) may be used. If no such approximation is possible, that should be stated: e.g. [c. 1750] or [n.d.].

9 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 9 of 10 Citation in the Text Quotations If the quote is less than 3 typewritten lines it may be included in the body of the text in double quotation marks. Longer quotations are indented and single-spaced, quotation marks are not required.

10 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 10 of 10 Summaries or Paraphrases Give the citation where it occurs naturally or at the end of the relevant piece of writing. Diagrams, Illustrations Should be referenced as though they were a quotation if they have been taken from a published work. If details of a particular parts of a document are required, e.g. page numbers, they should be given after the year within parentheses. Citation in the Text

11 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 11 of 10 If the author’s name occurs naturally in the sentence, the year is given in parentheses: e.g. In a popular study, Harvey (1992, p.27) argued that we have to teach good practices…. If the name does not occur naturally in the sentence, both the name and the year is given in parentheses: e.g. A more recent study (Stevens 1998, p.468) has shown the way theory and practical work interact. Citation in the Text - Norms

12 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 12 of 10 When the author has published more than one cited document in the same year, these are distinguished by adding lower case letters (a, b, c, etc.) after the year and within the parentheses: e.g. Johnson (1994a, p.31) discussed the subject….. If there are two authors, the surnames of both should be given: e.g. Mathew and Jones (1997, p.121) have proposed that… If there are more than two authors, the surname of the first author only should be given followed by et al (and others). A full listing of the names should appear in the bibliography: e.g. Office costs amount to 20% of total costs in most business (Wilson et al. 1997, p.73) Citation in the Text - Norms

13 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 13 of 10 If there is no named originator, use “Anon” (Anonymous): e.g. In a recent article (Anon 1998, p.269) it was stated that…. If it is a reference to a newspaper article with no author the name of the paper can be used in place of ‘Anon’. You should use the same style in the bibliography: e.g. More people than ever seem to be using home delivery (The Times 1996, p.3). Citation in the Text - Norms

14 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 14 of 10 If you refer to a source quoted in another source, you cite both in the text: e.g.A study by Smith (1960 cited Jones 1994, p.24) showed that… (you should list only the source you have read i.e. Jones, in the bibliography). If you refer to a person who has not produced a work, or contributed to one, but who is quoted in someone else’s work, it is suggested that you mention the person’s name and cite the author: You should list the work published in the bibliography: e.g.Richard Hammond Stressed the part psychology plays in advertising in an interview with Marshall (1999, p.67). Citation in the Text - Norms

15 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 15 of 10 Personal Communications They do not provide recoverable data and so are not included in the reference list. Cite personal communications in the text only. Give initials as well as the surname of the communicator and provide as exact a date as possible. e.g.Many designers do not understand the needs of disabled people according to J. O. Reiss (1999, pers. comm, 5 March) Citation in the Text - Norms

16 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 16 of 10 Reference list / Bibliography Bibliography describes references to cited documents given in a list at the end of the text. They can also be called a reference list when there is a separate bibliography of works that have been read but not cited.

17 Referencing; Harvard System 1/06 Slide 17 of 10 Reference list - Norms References are listed in alphabetical order of authors’ names. If more than one item by a specific author is cited, they should be listed chronologically (earliest first) and by letter (1993a, 1993b) if more than one item is published during a specific year. Each reference should use the elements and punctuation in the following examples.
