Show references in Author, Year, Title, Source, (other data) With Bibtex

Question

I would like to use Bibtex to write references and citations for work for my University.

I have got the LaTeX and BibTex combination down perfectly for referances bar one thing.

For the reference style, my University requires the following:

Surname, F(irstname).(YEAR) Title of referenced piece. Further data, eg, web URL, Place of publication, Publisher, Pages of article etc etc

For example, a reference must look like this:

Bloggs, J.(1940) The life of Pi. London:A Publisher

Using Bibtex, nattex with LaTeX i have achieved something mostly like this:

Bloggs, J. The Life of Pi. London: A Publisher. 2005

but I can't get the year to display after the author, it always displays right at the end of the referance.

How can I get the year to display after after the author in brackets?

Thanks.

Answer 1

I have solved this issue by using:

\bibliographystyle{apalike}

References now display exactly how I need them too.
