Citations
The University Archives expects researchers to be responsible when citing materials found in the collections. All citations must be specific enough to lead subsequent researchers directly to the items cited. The Archives puts forth the following examples as models that it hopes researchers, writers, and publishers will adopt.
Footnote Citations
