Harvard Reference Style Guide

Краткое, простое и простое справочное руководство Harvard Reference Guide для студентов-выпускников

Referencing or citing your sources is an important part of academic writing. It lets you acknowledge the ideas or words of others if you use them in your work and helps avoid plagiarism.

Referencing also demonstrates that you've read relevant background literature and you can provide authority for statements you make in your assignments.

The Harvard citation style can vary in minor features such as punctuation, capitalisation, abbreviations, and the use of italics.

Note: Always check with your instructor/professor for which citation style they prefer you to use.
