Citation Styles

There are two citation styles currently available within the harvard family, agsm (used in this document) and dcu which for the previous example would produce:

The BibTeX (Patashnik; 1988) and L^ATEX (Lamport; 1986, Annex B) manuals ...

and for multiple citations such as

  The original documentation \cite{btxdoc,latex} say \ldots

the agsm citation style produces

The original documentation (Lamport; 1986; Patashnik; 1988) say ...

and the dcu citation style produces

The original documentation (Lamport; 1986; Patashnik; 1988) say ...

The default citation style is agsm and both styles have no effect on the appearance of the $\backslash$citeasnoun citation format.

These styles are invoked by the $\backslash$citationstyle command, for example:

  \citationstyle{agsm}.

Because these styles affect the format of parenthetical citations, this command should appear before any $\backslash$cite commands. Additionally the citation style may be selected by passing an option to the $\backslash$usepackage command that invokes the harvard package. In order to avoid name clashes with the agsm and dcu bibliography styles the options agsmcite and dcucite are used with the $\backslash$usepackage command in order to select agsm and dcu citation modes respectively.
