RE: [LegacyUG] Citing sources in Legacy

[Robert Carneal]

What do they do about “private-runs?” That is, a book someone may have printed in the thousands, but did not submit it for an ISBN number designation. Just take what information you type in and format it as best as they can?  A lot of my sources are from private runs.   Thanks.   Robert   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Dawn Crowley Sent: 2006-10-04 20:05 To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Citing sources in Legacy   Here is the link to mybib: http://www.easybib.com/products/mybibpro.php It's currently $8 per year (yes, that is per year)  for mybib pro. Dawn HSP wrote: There are several "automatic" citation sites online. They may not answer all of your questions but do a good job at taking what information you know about your source and formatting it correctly for genealogical purposes. Books and periodicals are pretty standard stuff to cite but when citing webpages we all get a little confused.   Google "citationmachine" (or this may get you there):   http://citationmachine.net/    I use it from time to time. (Use MLA format, not APA format.) You can also play around with it and get some good examples to follow in the future. There is also one called MyBib but I think they charge for the service. The one good thing about MyBib is that they search for the book immediately from their database so you don't need to enter the particulars yourself (publisher, date, etc.).   Helen Legacy User Group guidelines can be found at: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp To find past messages, please go to our searchable archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ For online technical support, please visit http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe please visit: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp Legacy User Group guidelines can be found at: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp To find past messages, please go to our searchable archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ For online technical support, please visit http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe please visit: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
