Sorry Cathy, you are the one applying the term ‘reprint’ to these records, not 
me. Would that mean you define all records found online as ‘reprints’? Census? 
County record books? If so, than all records found online would be secondary 
not the original.

 

That would not be an record analysis to which I would not agree.

Your choice Denise 

but I'd read on further and see that ESS calls them facsimile reprints or image 
reprints though in my edition she doesn't detail them online but rather on CD 
or microfilm.
"12.79 Reprints: Image Editions
Reprints that offer image copies of earlier publications are called
facsimile reprints (as opposed to facsimile reproductions of original
records, covered at 12.77). However, the modern terms image copy or
image reprint are better understood today."

Of course her caveats apply.

No doubt her webpages or the later editions cover online reprints.

I really don't care about exact ordering and commas etc so long as the source 
can be found. Of course it needs the online detail and the original publication 
detail.

That's what the SourceWriter reprint templates, which are all based on Evidence 
Explained, provid e.

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 sam ple 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.
