Harvard Style - Cite Them Right 9th edition for Policy Press

pthistlethwaite@gc.c · March 3, 2016

I'm submitting a manuscript for the Policy Press based in Bristol. The PP style guide nearly works with the Harvard - Cite Them Right 9th edition, but with a few pesky differences. Would anyone care to modify the Harvard style code to work with Policy Press guidelines?

What type of changes are we talking about? If it'll take me 5mins I can do it. Not if I'm going to spend significant amounts of time.

Thanks- missed your reply earlier.

Major differences are in Policy Press Harvard Style:
1. et al is not italicized in text or in references
2. edition statement in parentheses (3rd edn)
3. article pagination preceded by a colon behind volume and issue (38(6): 776-83)
4. chapter references retain pp followed by no period (pp 23-56)
5. pagination numbers elide as far as possible, keeping 'teen' numbers (43-5; 134-46; 14-16)
6. no Access date for URLs
7. book and journal titles capitalise first word and names, plus first word after title punctuation (Policy & Politics) (The society at large: Questioning community)
