Question by Yossarian:
How to reference a point already within parentheses?
In other words im making a point that required a small bit of detail in parentheses after it but i need to reference/cite that small point also and im not sure how to do that. Does it require another set of brackets within brackets?
I am asking a question(on yahoo answers(reference)) or is there a better way to do it? I think we're using the Harvard system?

I've never heard of the Harvard system, and I'm a college librarian who teaches Information Literacy courses.
Honestly, I would find a way to eliminate the parenthesis for the "small bit of detail." Just do it as a sentence, or put it after a dash, anything. Then put your citation after that.
But, any good citation guide would tell you how to deal with this. Again, I have no idea what the Harvard system is. If you can get hold of a Chicago Manual of Style, however, I almost always find what I'm looking for in there. They may cover a situation like this.
