I think I mentioned it elsewhere. This format requires a fixed citation format for the course books. So most are (foo 1993) but for the course book it needs to be (HP) so I abuse the volume field currently to force that.
This a a comprehensive guide to Harvard that we have to use.
Glade to see there is a Harvard style know available. Will test it out over the next few days. On my Masters course the referencing is extremely strictly assessed to this standard.
Jon - can't reproduce the space issue on missing author - it works for me in word, might try OO in a bit. I've uploaded a new version though with a couple of tidy ups in.
Hello again
Codec, you are doing an excellent job by working on this style. Thanks for that.
I also like the idea from bdarcus of expanding the possibilities to use different styles in zotero.
On the Harvard referencing - I have checked what style is used refworks (hope i am not uttering heresy here :) and they apparently have two Harvard styles uloaded -
Harvard
Harvard - Bristish Standard
Comparing results by both it seemed that the one that codec has created is more aligned to the British version, whereas the one that i have been acustomed to is the first one.
I am attaching a reference list with all types of sources that illustrates the Harvard style in refworks.
http://www.zinaf.net/Files/harvard_referencing_refworks.pdf
I whish I had the time to learn how to make these csl files (rather writing the code :) - It would have made it much faster if more than one person was working on this bloody Harvard style :)
best wishes
z.
Thanks - thats useful - might have a go at it. However its missing a few details - like when et. al. kicks in, what page numbers should look like in citations and a few other bits.
I agree, it does not list that. et al. kicks in for 3+ authors (for two is used 'and' or '&')
in-text citations - pages would look as follows (Beutler et al. 2001, p. 190/pp. 190-230)
i have another very good source that contains the actual rules. It goes to a great detail to specify the various cases and it seems it complements well the refworks file i posted earlier.
http://library.curtin.edu.au/referencing/harvard.pdf
cheers
z.
wow, that was fast.
I surely would vote for harvard3, however I have to remarks to make,
-the year should be in brackets;
-the various parts of the reference should be seprated by comme and not fullstop. fullstop should be only at the end.
-and finally, when abreviating the first names use a fullstop (not to be confused with the note above :) also if two frst names should be separated with a space. see the example below:
current:
Lawrence, BS 1997, “The Black Box of Organizational Demography.” Organization Science, vol. 8, no. 1, pp. 1-22.
should be:
Lawrence, B. S. (1997), “The Black Box of Organizational Demography”, Organization Science, vol. 8, no. 1, pp. 1-22.
i also noticed that the fullstop/comma that you use after the name of the book/article is before the quotation marks, should be after.
e.g., Madden, R & Hogan, T 1997, The definition of disability in Australia: moving towards national consistency, Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, Canberra.
Wharton, N 1996, ‘Health and safety in outdoor activity centres’, Journal of Adventure Education and Outdoor Leadership, vol. 12, no. 4, pp. 8-9.
true, true. My mistake. I got them all mixed up. the year and first names must have been from my uni. I guess this hybrid is what i was getting to so did not realise that i have combined two sources ;)
I think you should go ahead with what we have come up with so far (harvard3). You will not be able to satisfy everyone's requirements.
I wish that there will be a tool in zotero that would allow us to easily modify and customise a given style to the requirements of the particular cause we use it for.
cheers and thanks again for the effort.
HI Codec, loaded up the new harvard1 and the openoffice extra space suppress author glitch seems to be gone (still there for the APSA style). Great work. Unless anybody else has any caveats, should we release this one, so long as people know that its based on the East Anglia standard? Jon.
These styles are now maintained at the following page
http://www.zotero.org/styles
along with others - and can be directly loaded into Zotero 1.0.2 when it is released.
Great news! (although possibly not for the bug reports I'll get!).
Wonderful. I am busy with my MPhil degree and I discovered Zotero. It was an answer to my prayers (well almost). I really need the Harvard method since my University accepts no other method. The preview really has me excited. Any idea when it will be available to end-users?
hello babrevian,
as there is no news on when the official zotero 1.0.2. release will be out i did the following and it has worked so far fine with me.
1. download and install the beta version of 1.0.2 from here http://dev.zotero.org/svn_and_trac_access (see bottom of page 'Development XPI'; there is a link to the ff extension file; download and open with ff to install)
2. chose the style you want to install from the page codec mentiones http://www.zotero.org/styles - next to each one of them there is an install).
3. that should do it. perhaps there will be some issue since this is beta but better beta than nothing :)
Codec, I will be now testing the harvard3 as i write my assignment and will give more feedback later on.
I have one problem to reprot so far:
in harvard2 and harvard3 I get an error once trying to insert reference list using ms word plug in (word 2003). I have tried that with 1.0.2.022 (i think) and on the production 1.0.1; the error message reads 'an error occurred while trying to comunicate with zotero. please ensure ff is open and try again'.
I run ff 2.0.0.11 on win-xp-sp2.
all is fine with harvard1. I get the same error if i create the ref list with harvard1 and try to change the style in the word plugin options to harvard2 or 3.
something interesting i have discovered is that by installing the beta 1.0.2.022 one can install all the additional styles and then safely go back to zotero production - all added styles remain installed and can be used.
b/w the latest update, which i installed today, of the beta 1.0.2.039 (i think :) does not work at all with the word plug in, but i guess this should be addressed somewhere else.
some very minor adjustments like bracketing the year and indicate the place of publishing before the publisher.

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)

along with others - and can be directly loaded into Zotero 1.0.2 when it is released.
Great news! (although possibly not for the bug reports I'll get!).
I look forward to 1.0.2 to be able to install them.
as there is no news on when the official zotero 1.0.2. release will be out i did the following and it has worked so far fine with me.
1. download and install the beta version of 1.0.2 from here http://dev.zotero.org/svn_and_trac_access (see bottom of page 'Development XPI'; there is a link to the ff extension file; download and open with ff to install)
2. chose the style you want to install from the page codec mentiones http://www.zotero.org/styles - next to each one of them there is an install).
3. that should do it. perhaps there will be some issue since this is beta but better beta than nothing :)
Codec, I will be now testing the harvard3 as i write my assignment and will give more feedback later on.
in harvard2 and harvard3 I get an error once trying to insert reference list using ms word plug in (word 2003). I have tried that with 1.0.2.022 (i think) and on the production 1.0.1; the error message reads 'an error occurred while trying to comunicate with zotero. please ensure ff is open and try again'.
I run ff 2.0.0.11 on win-xp-sp2.
all is fine with harvard1. I get the same error if i create the ref list with harvard1 and try to change the style in the word plugin options to harvard2 or 3.
something interesting i have discovered is that by installing the beta 1.0.2.022 one can install all the additional styles and then safely go back to zotero production - all added styles remain installed and can be used.
b/w the latest update, which i installed today, of the beta 1.0.2.039 (i think :) does not work at all with the word plug in, but i guess this should be addressed somewhere else.
i believe the styles available follow the australian practice. the unis in london/uk generally use a slightly different form of harvard.

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)
