    Hi
    i believe the styles available follow the australian practice. the unis in london/uk generally use a slightly different form of harvard.

    http://www.brookes.ac.uk/library/resources/harvard.pdf
    http://www.uel.ac.uk/lss/Harvardreferencing.htm#q7

    some very minor adjustments like bracketing the year and indicate the place of publishing before the publisher.

    I haven't looked to see - but there is a 4th Harvard style "Open University Harvard Style" that is different yet again.

    I have the following question about the Harvard method as it is used by Zotero - According to my Professor the intext citation must be: Babrevian (1999:20) and not Babrevian (1999, p.20). Is it possible to have a version that will give the inline citation with a ":20" instead of the "p.20"?

    I have fiddled around with the Chicago author-date style so that it gives the sort of in-text citation you are looking for. I played with the Harvard style for a bit but couldn't get it to produce the same result. Anyway, I'm pasting the Chicago below in case it is of use to you.

    I need some serious help PLEASE. For my M-thesis I need to make use of the Harvard method in my bibliography. It appears as if there is different interpretations on how to implement the Harvard method. The team of Zotero already made 3 versions available (as far as I know), but my Professor does not approve of any of them. The differences is small, but significant enough to cause me to loose some marks.

    I already made extensive use of Zotero in my assignments (that must be handed in very soon ) and the only snag is my bibliography - luckily I asked my Professors help before handing them in. At this moment I must correct all in-text references of every assignment, as well as my bibliographies. I am not looking forward to editing all my assignments by hand, so I am asking anyone to please help my build a Harvard method for Zotero that is acceptable for my University (University of Stellenbosch in South African BTW). Their interpretation of the Harvard method can be found at http://library.sun.ac.za//eng/help/infolit2002/bibharvard.htm . Unfortunately the site's is a bit cumbersome to use, so I included most of their information in this post. The intext reference of Harvard differs quite a lot from the APA - Harvard is (Babrevian, 2008:33) as an example. Please help me, if I knew how to do this myself I would, but I have no idea.

    Here is the explanation of the Harvard method according to the University of Stellenbosch. Due to the size of my post, I will have to post it in a few posts. Hope this is clear. Thanks guys (Sorry about these huge posts but I hoped it would help. For some reason there is a lot of wasted space between the heading and the example)

    Notes

    • A study was done by Seidenberg and McClelland.

    • Coltheart et al later refers to this study
      in their article titled "Models of reading aloud..."
      (The study is cited in Coltheart et al.).


    • The secondary source (the second source)
      should be given in the reference list.

    • When the cited work (the first work) was not read

    Notes

    • In example a) you used the microfiche copy of the
      thesis - the format is given in square brackets at
      the end of the entry.


    • Use the language of the publication - if the thesis
      is in Afrikaans, give the bibliographic detail in
      Afrikaans; if it is in English, give the bibliographic
      detail in English.

    • Example b) is an example of a printed thesis.



  1.  
    Is it possible to provide a collection of "recipes" to make some of this easier?

    I want to bracket the year of books and can't figure out how to make this change from one of the existing Harvard styles.

    I also want to have a name like Luke Boys become Boys, L. in output. How should the .csl file be set up and can I just enter the full names as relevant?

    FYI, the documentation used for Harvard 3 seems to be no longer available (http://library.curtin.edu.au/referencing/harvard.pdf), although the website does refer to another (quite extensive) guide at http://www.lib.unimelb.edu.au/cite/harvard_dis/. I obviously can't compare the two, so I don't know if the latter link is a suitable alternative for this style.
