2. Referencing Guide: Referencing a source within another source

The St Clare's College Referencing Guide follows the Harvard Referencing Style

Referencing a source cited within another source

Reference list/Bibliography

Your reference list/bibliography should only include the actual source you used.

In-text referencing

The in-text citation should include the original author’s surname and year followed by ‘cited in’ and the source details.

Example:

Esfandiari (1997* cited in Shirazi 2012, pp. 47-48) reports that Iranian women's movements have a long history.

*Esfandiari 1997 is the original author of the quoted information.
