[Sca-librarians] TI Bibliography Format

[Johnna Holloway]

Greetings

Mistress Doria Tecla, the new Editor of Tournaments Illuminated, asked 
if I would please
send the following new bibliography format out to this group
for a period of comments.

Please send comments if you have any to me and I will gather them
up and send them along to her in one e-mail. Apparently the amount of
e-mail is huge at the moment and this way we can make sure she sees our 
comments in one mailing.

I will give everyone until June 1st and then send along whatever I have 
been sent.

It should be noted that she will accept formatting done through 
EasyBib.com by the way
provided that the underlining switches to italics.

And we should note that there's going to be a 120 word max now
on bibliographies. This has to be added to the bibliography format page.

"The bibliography/sources/endnotes is/are limited to 120 words. In order 
to allow interested members to get the complete information, authors are 
asked to supply the additional information to the Corporate offices to 
keep on file for requests and (if available) list their e-mail address 
as a contact."

I personally think this means that sources should be divided into major 
sources and then further reading sources that are available through the 
publications office or from the author via e-mail?

What do you think?

As librarians, if someone brings a TI article and wants the source 
material, what do we need to see to put that book or article in that
patron's hands?

By the way MS Word counts a website as one word no matter how long or 
how many words it contains.
