Thanks for the link slow coach. I have my workbook from college so I know how to quote using Harvard style in text citation. However the problem I have, and what is not covered in the notes or anywhere I have searched on the web is the following..

I have 3 articles which I have found on the web which I need to constantly reference to in a literature review. The first time I reference each of the articles, in my review, I have used the full Harvard style in text citation. For example:

“Using Course Websites as Instructional Tools” Florida State University (2006) <http://online.fsu.edu/learningresources/handbook/instructionatfsu/PDF-Chptr10.pdf>, written by Dr. Lawrence Abele and Dr. Walt Wager.

What I'm wondering is when I reference the same article again, in my review, do I have to put in the in text citation again (as above) or is it ok to say (Dr. Lawrence Abele and Dr. Walt Wager 2006).

If you use it directly after the initial it's just (Ibid p whatever), I'd just use (Abele and Wager 2006) in the text and lash the link into your bibiliography or reference list

I have the handbook from DCU if you need anything scanned and emailed to you?

is the harvard style not (name, year, page mumber) e.g. (O’ Doherty, 1986, pg15) and they you just give the full refrence to the source at the end in a Bibliography???

Thanks Damien I appreciate you offering to scan and email the stuff to me. Tbh I think your right. I'll use the full in text citation when first referencing, and in the bibliography then just quote author name/date in the rest of the review.

hey there

it is as follows:

obviously the reference/bibliography at the end is just given once.

then the in-text style is (surname, year, page number). It is only the surname, and not the full name for the in-text referencing.

If the authors of the work are three or more, then you abbreviate it to first author surname followed by 'et al' after the first in-text citation

Obviously for articles on the web you don't use page number. Therefore, once you reference the author etc in your bibliography, for web articles it's just name and year? Do you not post the full name? Is it just surname?

I knew about the referencing 3 or more authors. One article I'm referencing has 2. I presume I reference both in that instance and don't use et al?

yes, just surname. and you don't have to use the page number if it isn't there.
