Need URGENT Help Referencing

Hi,

I've got an essay due in in a few hours and need help with the referencing.

Could someone show me an example of a harvard referenced website for my footnotes?

And also do I need to put Acts into my Bibliography?

Thank you very much

Hi, Harvard Referencing is done by first initial, surname, date of publication, title of text and edition, location of publication, and then publisher.

For example, if I wanted to a reference a book called Introduction to Economics in its third edition authored by Michael Stanley, published in 2009 in London, by Penguin books, I would do it thus:

M. Stanley (2009). Introduction to Economics 3rd Edition. London: Penguin Books

That is the way I do it and it is perfectly accepted by my uni but I could be wrong.

Also, if you want to reference a quote in an essay, then you would do it as surname, year of publication, and page number. For example:

"Marginal analysis is an important concept in economics as it...." (Stanley, 2009, p.141).
