Referencing at AHF: APA & Harvard

True, referencing is not rocket science. But how easy do you make a mistake because you overlook a missing dot or bracket, get confused by deviant examples, or overlook mistakes by your reference manager program. In addition, unlike APA, there is no definite form or one single source document for the Harvard referencing style. This leads to a variety of formats so which one to use?

Help is at hand! Together with faculty of AHF we have designed a library guide on Harvard referencing. It offers guidelines and examples on how to do this in the proper way at our academy. There are also two guides available for APA referencing. You can find them all here.
