Essay bibliography using Harvard referencing...

What is Harvard referencing?

When writing an essay or distertation it is important to know how to correctly reference your information sources throughout your written work and within your bibliography. The system used is called The Harvard referencing system.

When referencing you must try and include the following information:

- The author or editors name
- The year the book was published
- The title of the book
- If it is an edition other than the first
- The city the book was published in
- The name of the publisher

With journals you will need:

- The authors name (s)
- The year the journal was published
- The title of the article
- The title of the journal
- The page number of the article/ journal
- As much information as you can about the journal like the volume and issue numbers

For electronic sources:

- The date you assessed the source
- The electronic address or email
- The type of electronic source (email, discussion forum, WWW page etc)
