Harvard Style
         
Guidelines from the Curtin University Library

 

What's the purpose of Harvard Style?

  • Documentation of sources is necessary not just in research papers but in any written work that contains information from or references to texts outside itself.

  • The Harvard Style functions to:
    - lead your reader to the part of a text you focus on,
    - and help your reader to distinguish between your ideas and reasoning and those you derive from other sources.

How do I use Harvard Style?

  • Harvard Style consists of two main elements:
    - in-text citations in the body,
    - and a reference list at the end of the paper.
