Cathy, 

Yes, I am aware of the sample's format style. However, I am also aware that a 
digital image of an original book (City Directory or otherwise) is not a 
reprint of the original publication. A reprint would include both the original 
publication date and the date of the reprint. That is standard practice of the 
publishing industry. Even the publisher of a reprint might / probably would 
differ from the publisher of the original publication. 

As for SourceWriter, perhaps these differences is why I prefer not to use that 
option. 

Thanks for the comments, 

Denise

Denise, 

you've given an example for a Basic Format - real book City Directory. 
An online version needs a layered source. 

Using the Books Reprint option is a way to get that and provides the necessary 
fields for the online site and the original. 

Do you know that when looking for a template in the SourceWriter you can enter 
the section number in the Find box? 

I just did this - and it gave the templates I pointed to.

Cathy, 

I am a bit hesitant with describing a digitized (online) City 
Directory as a ‘reprint’. Might I suggest you review section 12.75 
Reprints & Revisions in ‘Evidence Explained’ (p. 708-9) 

The book does provide a sample source list entry for a City Directory 
as follows: 

Polk, R. L., compiler. Colora do Springs, Colorado, City Directory. 
Colorado Springs: R. L. Polk Directory Co., 1924, 1927, 1929, 1931. 

Typically the compiler and publishing information for a City Directory 
is found on the title / legal page of a directory, including the 
digital images.

A Historical City Directory seen via images online, is a book that has 
been republished online. 
So in SourceWriter start with Books and choose one of the reprint 
options and then online book for the Medium. 
If you want the full original publishing details, add them along with 
the original publication date.
