Never noticed that some notes didn't get sourced. Will have to look into that myself. At any rate, I use an MLA trick with my notes where I add my own notations to vairous paragraphs. At the end of para #1 [Jones] and para #2 [Smith] or something like that.
That way each bit of info. is sourced accordingly. On Sat, May 28, 2011 at 10:49 AM, Charlotte Box <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks all!
