Parenthesis Style

The type of parenthesis used in citations may be set using the $\backslash$harvardparenthesis command which takes one argument. The argument to this command must be one of round, curly, angle, square or none. The default value is round. If it is a requirement that different parenthesis types are required for parenthetical cites that for the year portion for a $\backslash$citeasnoun citation then the command $\backslash$harvardyearparenthesis may be used to set the year parenthesis seperately. This command must be issued after any $\backslash$harvardparenthesis command as that command sets both parenthetical and year parenthesis. If the bibliographic style chosen is agsm or dcu then the parenthesis style chosen using $\backslash$harvardyearparenthesis is used with the year portion of the entries in the bibliographic listing. The options round, curly, angle, square and none may also be used with the the $\backslash$usepackage command that invokes the harvard package.

Authors of style files for use with the harvard family who wish to make use of this feature should use the strings " \harvardleft " and " \harvardright " instead of the respective parenthesis characters where they wish them to be effected by the selection made with $\backslash$harvardparenthesis.
