Using Harvard referencing style

Can someone point me to some good instructions and resources on how to setup Harvard referencing style (a.k.a. Author-year)
with bibtex in a LaTeX document? The final formatting of the bibliography should look as in this page: http://libweb.anglia.ac.uk
/referencing/harvard.htm

I'm not totally new to LaTeX itself, but didn't use BibTex a lot, other than the default, predefined setup.

The Harvard style covers a wide range of choices of exactly how to do things. Using
the natbib package has already been mentioned, while you could also consider
biblatex .

12 \usepackage[sorting=nyt,style=apa]{biblatex} will give you more or less Harvard citations through


\textcite If you're super lazy (like me) add \let\cite\textcite to your preamble to use \cite
instead of \textcite – Seamus Oct 3 '10 at 20:17

The package you want is here: CTAN/harvard

Instructions for installing packages are here: CTAN, packages, and online help

It depends on your tex distribution. If you are using MiKTex, or another distribution
with a package manager you just need to call the bib style as per usual and the
package manager will handle installation.

It's generally better to use natbib instead of harvard . – Lev Bishop Oct 3 '10 at 15:39

6 And better to use biblatex than natbib? :) (Okay, it can depend.) – Will Robertson Oct 4 '10 at 1:35

3 You can have your cake and eat it too: \usepackage{har2nat} - harvard.sty macros on top of natbib.
– Charles Stewart May 6 '11 at 13:26

An option as been mentioned: \usepackage{harvard}

You can then use it like this:

\citeasnoun[p.42]{knuth} writes that TeX is great...


In \citepossesive[p.43]{knuth} book we can also see something else.

Which would become:

Knuth (1901, p.42) writes that TeX is great...


In Knuth's (1901, p.43) book we can also see something else.
