The Harvard referencing system has two essential components: brief in-text references throughout your assignment and a comprehensive list of references at the end of your assignment. The in-text reference should give the date that the work you are referring to was published, the family name of the author and, in the case of quotations, the page where the quotation was found. It is an easy system, once you understand it.
