Source List?

Correct me if I am wrong. A "Source List" would look like this....

Source List:

Book

Cemetery

Newspaper

Vital Record

Husky,1-25, a Source List is simply a list of sources that you've used. The entries are normally in alphabetical order, by the name of the author/creator or the collection name for unauthored works. Entries in a source list are not normally broken down according to record type, unless you wish to separate published sources from unpublished manuscript materials accessed onsite at archives. For clarity, certain formatting rules traditionally exist for the structure of a source list entry, regardless of the citation guide you are following.

EE 2.47–2.54, "Source List Arrangements," provides the basic rules and examples. You will also find part of that discussion, 2.48–2.50, at this website under the "Sample Pages" tab. EE's "Bibliography" (pp. 834–37 in the 3d ed. rev.) also demonstrates a source list that consists entirely of published works.
