mat. You are strongly urged to ensure that you adhere consistently and accurately to either the Harvard system or the Vancouver numeric system of referencing; do not combine both methods in any single piece of work. The Harvard system should be used for all coursework in the Aberdeen Business School unless otherwise advised (e.g. generally for work to be submitted to the Department of Law, and for some kinds of work submitted to the Department of Information Management). Full details of both the Harvard and Vancouver systems can be found in the Library guides on the web at http://www.rgu.ac.uk/library/howto/page.cfm?pge=25531; the guides give examples of the layout of the citations; the layout differs between Harvard and Vancouver so you are strongly advised to check the guides before starting. Some key points about both systems are given below.
Harvard System
This is the system that has been used throughout this guide, except the example given on page 7. In the Harvard system, correctly citing references requires
1. Citing the author’s name and year of publication within the text,
2. A references list containing the full details of the publications or quotes you have referred to within your work; this is placed at the end of the work. and ordered alphabetically by author surname – see the references and bibliographies included in this guide for examples. If an author has produced more than one item, then these entries are listed in order of year of public无忧论文 【http://www.uklunwen.com】ation.
3. You may wish to add a separate bibliography of material you have consulted, but not directly referred to within your work.
Within the text, the author’s surname and year of publication are quoted in brackets. However, if the author’s name appears naturally in the text only the date need be included in brackets. Where only a part of a document is required, the page numbers should follow the date and be included in brackets. If you want to emphasise the point you are making by using a short direct quote from a textbook or article, remember also to state the page number. For example,
“Use italics and/or bold type to emphasise that it is a direct quote and inverted commas at either end of the quote” (Burnett 1997 p. 1).
Vancouver numeric system
In the Vancouver numeric system, there are three elements to correctly citing a reference;
1. references are cited within the text as numbers in brackets or superscript e.g. (4) or Cameron4, in the order that they occur. Numbers may refer to bibliographic citations or to comments, or to both.
2. endnotes which give complete details of the material referred to, including page numbers, chapter numbers etc. These usually appear as footnotes at the bottom of each page, or may be added at the end of the chapter.
3. a bibliography which contains lists all the items you have cited and/or used (so may include references you have used but not cited within the text) and appears at the end of the work. The refe |
