G'd morning, There are two major academic traditions to deal with bibliographic references - the Harvard system (or the Author/Date system) and the Oxford system (or the Footnote system). http://www.kangan.edu.au/library/tips/bibliographies.htm Since both systems are ofte described in within the same style guide, I think it is better to refer to "systems of references" rather than actual style guides. For example, both the Harvard and the Oxford system are escribed in Chicago Manual of Style.
