+# newcastle-bst: Harvard referencing style as recommended by Newcastle University
+
+This package provides a [BibTeX](https://ctan.org/pkg/README.md/BibTeX) style to format reference lists in the [Harvard at Newcastle](https://libguides.ncl.ac.uk/managing/harvard) style recommended by Newcastle University. It should be used alongside [natbib](https://ctan.org/pkg/README.md/natbib) for citations.
+
+## Installation
+The required style file is available from [GitHub](https://github.com/LukeBriggsDev/Newcastle-BibTeX) and [CTAN](https://ctan.org/pkg/newcastle-bst). You can use the style by copying it into your working directory containing your `.tex` file. You can also add it to your bst directory in your tex path to use it without having to copy it over each time.
+
+## Using the style
+To use the style include this in your preamble:
+```tex
+\usepackage{natbib}
+\usepackage[UKenglish]{isodate}
+\bibliographystyle{newcastle}
+```
+
+Also remember to specify your `.bib` file at the end of the document:
+```tex
+\bibliography{file}
+```
+
+The easiest way to create .bib files for this style is through exporting entries from a reference manager such as [Mendeley](https://www.mendeley.com/).
+However, some parts are not available through this (such as titleaddon for computer programs).
+If you notice any discrepancies between generated references and the recommended styles then please raise this on [GitHub](https://github.com/LukeBriggsDev/Newcastle-BibTeX/issues)
