Citation Modes

By default, where appropriate, citations are abbreviated automatically after the first reference when bibliographies are produced by BibTeX. Provision is also made for this feature to be accessed during manual coding. This feature may be overridden by using the $\backslash$citationmode command which takes full, abbr or default as its single argument. The command $\backslash$citationmode{full} makes the system use full citations, $\backslash$citationmode{abbr} makes the system use abbreviated citations and $\backslash$citationmode{default} causes the default behaviour of using full citations for the first instance and abbreviated citations thereafter.

Alternatively, the citation mode may be selected as an full, abbr or default option to the $\backslash$usepackage command that invokes the harvard package. Use of the default option is redundant in that, if no citation mode option is used, that mode will be selected automatically.
