For help with your referencing use Cite Them Right.. It offers extensive guidance on how to reference and includes a range of support materials with access 24/7. You may already be familiar with the print book, as we have multiple copies on the shelves across our three campus libraries. You can:

• Construct a reference for anything.
• Build your references on screen.
• Cut and paste the prepared reference straight into your coursework. 
• Create references in different styles including Harvard. 

Cite Them Right is accessed on and off campus via the Online databases and academic journals link in the Search the Library portlet in the My Learning/Learning Support page in the portal or via: http://www.citethemrightonline.com where you will need to sign in.
