The Harvard bibliography lists the works cited in alphabetical order according to the last name of the first author of the cited work. The use of punctuation, boldface, italics, and so forth may vary, but these conventions must be used consistently (for example, if the sign & is used instead of the word “and” in a list of authors, then the & sign should be used each time). Multi-authored works that report the first author in the text citations (for example, see Adl et al. 2007 below) must include each author in the corresponding Harvard bibliography entry.

Here are some examples of Harvard bibliography entries, to show the variety that can occur. Note that these bibliography entries are from different papers.
