I found my mother in her college yearbook in a database on Ancestry. The
yearbook gives her address in a listing of all students so I would like to
cite it as a source for her residence at that time. I am perplexed as to
what I should choose in the Source Writer. Artifact, book, periodical, and
school record are all types I have considered. Ancestry doesn't provide a
citation for the yearbook, just for the database "U.S. School Yearbooks,
1880-2012", although it does give the name of the college and the title of
the yearbook. Should I page through the yearbook images until I get to the
title page, and cite it as a book? But I don't have the book, I just have
an online image accessed through Ancestry, and I thought you were supposed
to cite what you have in your hand.
