Introduction Why do I have to reference? To avoid plagiarism. To enable a reader to trace your sources. To enable a reader to distinguish your ideas from someone else s and show the range of your reading. To support your ideas, theories and add credibility. Students in Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering use an IEEE referencing style. It is important to check with your lecturers you are using the correct style. How to reference using the Harvard style There are two parts to referencing using the Harvard style: the reference list and citing the references in the text. What is the reference list? This appears at the end of your document. It is the list of the sources that you have used. (It is not added to your word count). The references should contain enough detail to enable another reader to find and locate the exact text you are referring to. How do I cite the references in the text? When you refer to another document you must acknowledge this within the text of your work, by citing the author s surname and the date of publication. For a single author: Ashby (2005) explains that there are a vast amount of materials to choose from and. For up to three authors: When citing something written by up to three authors list them all. Wang and Roush (2000) agree that.. For four or more authors: For more than three authors cite the first name listed followed by et al. 1 August 2014

Wiedemeier et al. (1999) define natural attenuation of fuels and chlorinated solvents in their book as.. Do I include page numbers in the citation? If you quote the exact words of your source, or copy an image, table or illustration, you need to include the page number where you found your quotation. If you paraphrase (put the information from the source into your own words) you do not need to include the page number. A direct quotation: The engineer is the driver of engineering design. To achieve engineering success, an engineer needs to understand and avoid potential failures that may occur down the road. (Wang and Roush, 2000, p.1) Paraphrasing: An engineer may have to overcome failure to achieve success. (Wang and Roush, 2000) If I read a book that cites another author s work and I want to use it, how do I reference it? Secondary referencing: This is explained clearly by Pears and Shields as, "In some cases you will read a source that refers to the work of someone else, known as a secondary source. Preferably you should find and read the item referred to. However, where this is not possible and you still wish to include the work referred to, you can mention it as a citation, known as secondary referencing. (2010, p.8) You must cite the authors of the book you are using and the page number where they use the authors work you want to refer to. : Handy and Spangler (2007, p.793) use a table that has been modified from the data of Robertson and Campanella (1983) in figure 26.8 to illustrate the friction angle of sand related to cone bearing value. What abbreviations can I use? 1. Abbreviate editor to (ed.). 2. Abbreviate edition to edn. 2 August 2014

Should I use the full web site address? Harvard referencing guide for Engineering and Informatics You don t have to put in the whole URL (web address). Cut it down so that it gives the reader enough information to identify the journal article / web page. Points to remember 1. Write all the authors names in the reference list, not just the first two and et al. 2. Your reference list should be in alphabetical order. (A - Z). 3. Always write the surname (family name) first followed by initials of personal names. 4. Only use a capital letter for the first significant word in the title. (Except when you are writing a journal title). 5. You may see an issue called a part or number instead; it may be shown with a number, a month name, or a letter. It is the part within the year. For example, you may see Volume 5, issue 6 ; Volume 5, number 6, Volume 5, June issue, or Volume 5, supplement II. All of those are ways of showing which part of the volume you are looking at. 6. You can usually find the issue number and volume on the front cover. 7. If you are using a doi (Digital Object Identifier) replace Available at: with doi: and write the number. 8. You will often see the information in a different order on the journal article PDF, or the cover of the book, from how we show it here- for example, they often write the author s name in the order personal name then surname. Make sure you don t just copy this into your reference, but change it so that it follows the rules of the Harvard style- for example, surname then initial of personal name. 9. Place of publication means town or city. Not country, and not street address. I need to reference something that isn t in this document There are more examples of references for different kinds of source in Pears, R. and Shields, G. (2013) Cite them right: the essential referencing guide. 9th edn. Basingstoke: Palgrave Macmillan. (Copies are in the JB Priestley Library at classmark 808.027 PEA.)

Place of publication: publisher. Series (where relevant). Ashby (2005) explains that. Ashby, M.F. (2005) Materials selection in mechanical design. 3rd edn. Oxford: Elsevier Butterworth Heinemann. Chapter in an edited book : Author(s) of chapter or section (surname followed by initials). Title of chapter or section: subtitle if it has one (in single quotation marks) then in.

Title of book: subtitle if it has one (in italics). Place of publication: publisher. pp. then the page numbers where the chapter starts and ends.

On some devices the specific page details are not available. Use the information you do have, for example (Brasier, 2009, 70%). 4 August 2014

Journal article Harvard referencing guide for Engineering and Informatics As the majority of journal articles are available online, you only need to include enough information to let your reader find the article. Usually this means you don t need to include the URL. If you are specifically referencing an abstract of a journal article your citation should make this clear. : Author(s) of article (surname followed by initials). Title of article: subtitle if it has one (in single quotation marks). Title of journal (in italics capitalise first letter of each word in title, except for linking words such as and, of, the, for). Issue information, that is, volume number (not in brackets) and, where applicable, the part number, supplement number, or month/season of the issue (in round brackets). pp. then the page numbers where the article starts and ends. doi (if available). who present a useful framework for analysis (Sanchez et al., 2012) Sanchez, J.L.G., Vela, F.L.G., Simarro, F.M. and Padilla-Zea, N.
