New Harvard at Newcastle style

The Harvard at Newcastle style was updated on the University network and RAS on 23rd April 2012. If you were already using it, you may notice some minor changes such as:

et al now in italics: et al

spacing in bibliography – references no longer have automatic spacing but you can format your bibliography to insert spaces by clicking on the “expand” arrow in the bottom right of the Bibliography box, selecting the layout tab and choosing “space after” to be one.

Indented references: references are no longer indented, again you can add an indent using the same technique described above.

Author names in citations may display differently.Please contact us if this applies to you.

If you prefer to use the older version of the style to complete your work, you can download it from the Guide
