In this guide you’ll learn about the Harvard referencing style, that uses references in two
places: a reference list at the end of the piece as well as in the text.
In general, each author’s name that appears in the text must also appear in the reference list
and every work in the reference list must also be referred to in the main text. All the details of
the reference are important, including full stops and commas.
In-text references in Harvard style should give the author’s surname and the year of the
work’s publication. If you quote or paraphrase, you should also give a page number. Check
out the following Berea Group of Colleges Quick Reference Guide for more examples:

All published and unpublished material, whether in manuscript, printed or electronic form, is covered under this definition. Plagiarism may be intentional or reckless, or unintentional.
